FILE_GET_NAME

to get the physical file name from the logical file name.

(logical file names can be maintained using transaction FILE)

hey,

Thanks for your reply.

Instead of using logical file name as input, can we allow the user to select logical path using parameter?

I want user to select Logical path or logical file name from parameter. is it possible?

(I want to avoid user to input insteal want to allow user to select the path)

just declare your parameter for logical file like below.

and you will automatically get F4 for logical files.

parameters: p_file like filenameci-fileintern .
