Hi,

If the File is Open or Kept Minimized it will not append in Internal Tables, for the Function Modules

TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP.

Venkat.

Hi Ajit,

You need not to do any extra efforts to implement this functionality. Many FMs has this functionality.

For example : TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP

This FM will not allow the user to upload any file if that file is open.

Your question is a bit unclear.

As others pointed out, if the file is open, the attaching function will be disabled.
Do you want a pop up to happen with the reason like why it is not getting opened??

Please give us more details.

Hi Ajith

If you use the FM-TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP with enabling exception, system will say clearly 'Excel file & cannot be processed'

You might tried without exception.

Still you are not clear send your requirements.
