Calling Editor to Read App server files.

Former Member — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 15:15:53 GMT

Dear SDN,

I have come across a complex requirement. I need to Open text files from the Application Server onto some Editor like notepad , modify them and save them back to the Application Server.

I don't want to download the files to the local machine and then modify them.

Is it possible to achieve it using ABAP?

Ideas welcome!!!

Please let me know if it is do able this way?

Thanks,

Manu Kapur

upload the file into one of the SAP Controls 'Text-edit'.

In package SAPTEXTEDIT there are several sample reports to be found.
