How to set Open Data set encoding to ANSI Code??

Former Member — Mon, 08 Nov 2010 03:04:46 GMT

Dear Expert,

I used OPEN DATASET to output data to file from SAP.

But the default encoding is UTF-8.

Is there any way i can convert the encoding to ANSI?

Regards

Here is part of my code below:

OPEN DATASET file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

LOOP AT gt_dfiebw.

CONCATENATE

gt_dfiebw-acc1

gt_dfiebw-acc2

gt_dfiebw-acc3

gt_dfiebw-vendor

gt_dfiebw-invre

gt_dfiebw-pdat

gt_dfiebw-curcy

gt_dfiebw-payat

gt_dfiebw-descp

gt_dfiebw-fax

gt_dfiebw-addr1

l_addr3 INTO o_string SEPARATED BY cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.

TRANSFER o_string TO file.

ENDLOOP.

CLOSE DATASET file.

Hello,

What exactly do you mean by "encoding to ANSI"?

Thanks.

I changed MODE ENCODING DEFAULT. to MODE ENCODING non-unicode.

then the encoding changed to ANSI.

Hi Lee,

Try this fm CALL FUNCTION 'EPS_OPEN_OUTPUT_FILE'

It has a text mode flag

I am not very clear of your requirement .

Hi Lee,

You can have a look into this module also
