hi,

use the following way

open dataset <filename> for o/p

in {text/binary mode}

encoding default.

regards

prasanth

if the file is not there it creates a file. binary mode is default

l_unix_file = <your filepath on Application server with filename you want to create>

OPEN DATASET l_unix_file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

IF sy-subrc NE 0.

<output error message>

ENDIF.

LOOP AT it_output. TRANSFER it_output TO l_unix_file.

ENDLOOP.

CLOSE DATASET l_unix_file.
