Delete file from an FTP folder

Former Member — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 09:27:12 GMT

Hi expert,

I wanna know if it's possible delete with abap command a file from a FTP folder.

I mean, there is a ftp folder periodically filled with excel files. An ABAP program read this folder and the files content must be moved in a SAP Table. Aftre this, I must delete excel files with an abap command write in the same abap program.

Thanks a lot

1) read directory with fm EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING

2) process table dir_list

and 3) finally delete files with

abap command: DELETE DATASET dsn.

hope that helps

Andreas
