Hi Raja,

This module is obsolete. Use the appropriate module from the function group SFES.

The appropriate function modules from funciton group SFES.

GUI_GET_DESKTOP_INFO

GUI_GET_FILE_INFO

GUI_EXEC

GUI_RUN etc

The Equivalent Function Module for WS_QUERY-File Exist in ABAP 4.7 is

CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_EXIST or WS_QUERY-Directory Exist is CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>DIRECTORY_EXIST.

Thanks,
