Former Member — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 04:57:20 GMT

Hi Gurus

I am transferring fles to Application Server through Open Dataset.


  OPEN DATASET fname FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT WITH SMART LINEFEED.

I am creating CSV files & they are working fine.

Problem is when I am opening the same file in Text Format (using 'Open with' notepad), all different records are coming in same line seprated by <symbol in shape of Square>.

Please help what's the problem.

Regards.

Hi,

notepad just does not recognize linefeed. Have you tried with WITH WINDOWS LINEFEED. Why did you choose SMART LINEFEED?

Cheers

Hi Martin

not using LINE FEED.

Copied from somewhere just to test

Actually I'm just using


OPEN DATASET fname FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

In that case I guess that your SAP system is running on Unix platform. Have you tried with WINDOWS FEED?

Correct.

SAP System is running on UNIX.

Not tried WINDOWS FEED...

When using 'with windows /unix feed', its giving Error.
