  The SAP error message STB_WZ_WIZARD052 indicates that a table control in an SAP screen (typically in a dialog program or a module pool) does not meet the minimum width requirement. This error usually occurs during the design phase when you are working with screen elements in the Screen Painter or when you are trying to execute a program that has a table control with insufficient width.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the table control being defined with a width that is less than the minimum required width. This can happen if:
