Open you worddocument with notepad and have a look at the mess you're getting. You cant do meaninggful changes to this. What you can see in notepad is what you're getting in your ABAP.

To upload data from doc file to internal table you can use the function module GUI_UPLOAD ....

declare P_DATA as :

P_DATA(255) type c.

and give the file location in it

for example : P_DATA = 'C:\text.doc'

or you can say

constant : P_DATA(255) type c value 'C:\text.doc'.

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

EXPORTING

filename = P_DATA

FILETYPE = 'ASC'

HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'

tables

data_tab = IT_TAB

EXCEPTIONS

FILE_OPEN_ERROR = 1

FILE_READ_ERROR = 2

NO_BATCH = 3

GUI_REFUSE_FILETRANSFER = 4

INVALID_TYPE = 5

NO_AUTHORITY = 6

UNKNOWN_ERROR = 7

BAD_DATA_FORMAT = 8

HEADER_NOT_ALLOWED = 9

SEPARATOR_NOT_ALLOWED = 10

HEADER_TOO_LONG = 11

UNKNOWN_DP_ERROR = 12

ACCESS_DENIED = 13

DP_OUT_OF_MEMORY = 14

DISK_FULL = 15

DP_TIMEOUT = 16

OTHERS = 17

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

Please do not forget to mention HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'

This is the one which should solve your problem.

Thanks for your reply.

Well my requirement is actually to modify and save a word document using ABAP code. Using internal table was the one started with. If that is not posible can you suggest any other method ?

I tried the same code but it did not work. The text was still gibberish. Is there any other way to modify and save a word document using ABAP Code.
