Display previous folder when browsing again from a parameter field

Former Member — Wed, 23 Aug 2006 15:07:22 GMT

Hi,

Can somebody suggest how to display the previous folder browsed as the default folder when browsing again from the parameter field. I am using WS_FILENAME_GET to browse a file.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Arun Mohan

Hi,

I think the function module itself help you to browse and select the required file you want, no need of extra coding required.

Use the class-mthod:

CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>DIRECTORY_GET_CURRENT to get the current directory.

use it as the default file path in the fm: ws_filename_get.

I think this behavior is automatic when using the method file_open_dialog of class cl_gui_frontend_services.

Hi Arun,

Try this.

initialization.

IMPORT P_PATH FROM MEMORY ID 'AA'.

start-of-selection.

EXPORT P_PATH TO MEMORY ID 'AA'.

where p_path is the parameter of file path.

hi Arun,

Check this way out

data:    l_file         type filetable, 
           l_fileline     type file_table, 
           l_rc           type i. 

  class cl_gui_frontend_services definition load. 

  call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_open_dialog 
    exporting 
      window_title      = p_filetitle 
      initial_directory = 'C:Temp' 
    changing 
      file_table        = l_file 
      rc                = l_rc. 

  if sy-subrc = 0. 
    read table l_file into l_fileline index 1. 
  endif. 
  p_filename = l_fileline.

Create a parameter ID or use existing parameter ID SOP, add it to user profile parameters in tx SU3.

use GET PARAMETER ID before the WS_FILENAME_GET call to get previous dir.

USe fm G_SET_USER_PARAMETER to set the parameter in user profile with current dir
