Error Message while executing

What happened?

At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4102':

- a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two

codepages;

- or it was detected that this conversion is not supported

The running ABAP program 'ZHDI_LOMM_VEHI_MAT_MASS_CREATE' had to be terminated

as the conversion

would have produced incorrect data.

The number of characters that could not be displayed (and therefore not

be converted), is 449. If this number is 0, the second error case, as

mentioned above, has occurred.

Error analysis

An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.

The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE', was not

caught in

procedure "F_DATA_UPLOAD" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.

Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the

exception would occur, the current program is terminated.

The reason for the exception is:

Characters are always displayed in only a certain codepage. Many

codepages only define a limited set of characters. If a text from a

codepage should be converted into another codepage, and if this text

contains characters that are not defined in one of the two codepages, a

conversion error occurs.

Moreover, a conversion error can occur if one of the needed codepages

'4110' or '4102' is not known to the system.

If the conversion error occurred at read or write of screen, the file

name was '/usr/sap/interfaces/conversion/pioneer/ddm/data/test_data1.xls'.

(further information about the file: "X 549

24064rw-rw----200812232135082008122307293120081223072931")

Please help me

Thank You

you want to read EXCEL files from application server is not possible, you need to create the file as CSV

(coma delimited) or TXT file. But you can read EXCEL file from you local system(presebtation server)
