Hello,

Why don't you build a selection screen for it where you have a fields with a value request which can browse for a file. You can also then give a default for the filename.

Is that what you mean?

Hi,

It's better to use another FM 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT'

call function 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT'

exporting

I_FIELD_SEPERATOR = seper
I_LINE_HEADER = 'X'

I_FILENAME = P_FILE

tables

I_TAB_SAP_DATA = itab

exceptions

CONVERSION_FAILED = 1.
