Hi Buddy,

Use this selection screen event.

PARAMETERS: p_fname LIKE rlgrap-filename.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_fname.

CALL FUNCTION 'F4_FILENAME'

EXPORTING

program_name = syst-cprog

IMPORTING

file_name = p_fname.

You can get the flat file name in the selection screen.

Hi ,

1 Use f4_filename function module you will get c:/temp/file.txt into the

selection screen variable .

2 then use string_reverse function module then the txt.elif/pmep/:c will

come so from that read the variable upto '/' that will become the reverse of your file name .

3.then again use string_reverse your filename come to one variable then append that to internal table

reward if useful
