File Upload

Former Member — Fri, 09 Mar 2007 13:29:25 GMT

I have a file that is to be uploaded using GUI_UPLOAD.

Each record in the file contains several fields, including serial number.

And for each record there could be none, one or several serial numbers.

So I tried creating an internal table with a table type component

for serial numbers but an exception is thrown since the function expects

an elementary type rather than a type table.

Can I dynamically create the internal table at runtime to

reflect the maximum number of serial numbers that must be

uploaded for the records?

Hey why do you have to declare that as a table type instead you can do like the header and line item data. Each line of the record having multiple serial numbers.if it has multiple lines it will be multiple records in the internal table with the rest of the fields blank and only serial no filled. If there are no records there will not be any entries in the table.

Which means your file looks like this...

100 2007 1

200 2007 4

300 2007 6

400 2007 8

I don't see for this a table type field or dynamic table has to be declared ?

let me know if its something different posting your file. If it helps award points.
