Function Module to create a program in SE38

Former Member — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 12:11:49 GMT

Hi,

I have to create an ABAP program dynamically. The program name(to be created) will be provided in the selection screen and the logic of the program will be available in an internal table & also in a local PC file. Is there any Function Module available in SAP to create the program dynamically by using the code which is available in the internal table. The program should be saved in the Local Object.

Can someone help me on this issue. Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Paddu.
