third party tool

Former Member — Thu, 11 May 2006 10:26:13 GMT

in a particular program i require to acess a third party encryption tool(batch file) which encrypts a file. i tried using the methof cl_gui_frontendservices=>execute . but my problem is that the program always will run in the background and this method is made to run in the foreground so it throws a runtime error. this program is a called by transaction f110 which is a Fi transaction. is there any means by which i can acess the batch file even though it runs in the background.

thx u

Use this fm:

SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE

create an external OS command in sm69 before you execute that command using the fm SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE.

or you can use the tcode sm49 to execute the command manually.

Hi Navid,

you can check the execution of the command in SM49 itself, and try changing the params. to make it work
