DIrectory path to select a folder

Former Member — Mon, 09 Jan 2006 11:57:04 GMT

Can any one tell me if there is a Function module that will display the windows directory path and returns the filenames in the selected folder when F4 help is clicked.Currently I am using

cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_browse

But please let me know if ther is any function module which gives me the same functionality as the above method does.

F4_FILENAME_GET or use

call function 'KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4'

changing

file_name = file

exceptions

mask_too_long = 1

others = 2.

if sy-subrc <> 0.

message 'Error in getting filename'.

endif.

You can use function module KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4

A sample code can be seen in the following SAP program.

RFEBJP00. Refer to line 115 and below.

Hi,

You can use this FM -'EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING' along with other F4 function modules which select the directory.

Hi Sridhar,

WS_FILENAME_GET consits of classes only. i feel calling the method cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_browse is the best solution. why do you want to go for Function module is there any specific requirements..

please let me know.

Note: it is adviced to use class methods rather than FM's

Hi Sridhar,

try using the FM TMP_GUI_DIRECTORY_LIST_FILES. It might work.
