The file path is case sensitive. Please try to use the same case.

Sy-subrc = 8, I guess file path not found.

Hope it helps,

Is the file marked as "Read Only"?

The path is correct.

When i try to open with content 'Test', I obtain to open.

But when content is:

C;MT65E-07X055;ZMTEXP;MT - ADSL 3º TRI - TGBK;65000002;11062007;15092007;

I;1;MT65E-07X055;MT - ADSL 3º TRI - TGBK;28;2007;PINV-BRT;MTRXCD;2007;

I;2;MT65E-07X055-001;TGBK;28;2007;

The sy-subrc is 8.

If the path is correct, try with giving the file name with extension like .txt and all

( if it is user input )

Like "test.txt"

Hi,

Check your file name and path using the transaction AL11.

Thanks

hi,

go to T-code AL11 and first check whether the file is there in APP server......... or not.

if the file exists then i think ur giving the path wrong(including the folder name is also case sensitive).

so chek the logical path,file and folder name oprectly.......

Thanks,

Ravinder.

Hi,

Verify the path and file name in p_file.

Make sure that the file actually exists

Hi,

Is the problem with the OPEN command or with the READ command? I ask this because your file contains special characters like 3º

Try the following:

OPEN DATASET '???' FOR INPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE.
