FilePath Selection

Former Member — Tue, 21 Feb 2006 20:01:51 GMT

Hello,

I would like to know if is there a FM that helps to get a directory path, but only just the path I don´t need to select a file, I need it because the user has to select a directory for file output.

Thanks

Gabriel

Here is a sample program.



report zrich_0004.


data: str_path type string.
parameters: p_path type localfile.


at selection-screen on value-request for p_path.


  call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_browse
    exporting
      window_title    = 'Please select file path'
      initial_folder  = 'C:'
    changing
      selected_folder = str_path
    exceptions
      cntl_error      = 1
      error_no_gui    = 2
      others          = 3.

  call method cl_gui_cfw=>flush.

  p_path = str_path.
