Function Module existence

Former Member — Tue, 22 May 2007 10:01:25 GMT

Is there an existing function module that will retrieve file attributes such as file size, date modified, file type, etc.?

Thank you very much in advance.

Thank you very much Reshma.

I would just like to ask if my file is located at my local drive (e.g.'C:'), can I get its file attributes? I executed the codes you posted but I failed to retrieve its attributes. How can I correct it? Million thanks Reshma.

Hello,

I think this code works with file on your application server, not on your local disk

You have first to upload it.
