Dear All ,

Any others function which can use in ECC 6.0 and same features like "Download" .

Hi,

WS_UPLOAD/WS_DOWNLOAD/UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD is obsolete FM in ECC 6.0.

In the place of WS_UPLOAD/WS_DOWNLOAD/UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD use FM

GUI_UPLOAD/ GUI_DOWMLOAD and importing parameter u2018FILENAMEu2019 must be of

String type but in obsolete function modules it is of type C (128).

Regards,

Mahender

Those functions are obsolete, ([Note 594356 - Function modules ws_upload and ws_download are obsolete|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/594356])

Use news FM GUI_DOWNLOAD or class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES method GUI_DOWNLOAD.
