Function Module to get directory on F4

VenuAnumayam — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 15:50:20 GMT

Hello Experts,

Is there a FM to get Directory name on selection screen when the users hit F4, kinda like "KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4" for getting the filename?

Thanks.

you can call method directory_get from class cl_gui_frontend_services on the at selection-screen on value request for p_dir.

currently i am not infront of SAP system.. so just open the class in SE24 and see the methods for directory...

Hi,

This FM is also selecting the filename but not the directory. Thanks though.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR path. 
 
  DATA: l_dir   TYPE string. 
 
* Browse the Directories 
  CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_browse 
*     EXPORTING 
*       WINDOW_TITLE        = 
*      INITIAL_FOLDER       = 
    CHANGING 
      selected_folder      = l_dir 
    EXCEPTIONS 
      cntl_error           = 1 
      error_no_gui         = 2 
      not_supported_by_gui = 3 
      OTHERS               = 4

this is what you need i guess..
