Hi All,

As per requirement I am sending data (Material Number & Descriptions) to the application server i.e. AL11. Material description contains some special characters ( like , u201C ; etc) . From AL11 customer fetching data to Informatica. While fetching data to informatica the special characters are not appeared properly.

Syntax for Open dataset is as follows (Version ECC 6.0) :

OPEN DATASET l_fpath FOR OUTPUT in text mode ENCODING utf-8.

Could anybody please assist me in this regard. Thanks In advance.

Thanks & Regards,

Prasad.

open the dataset in binary mode. don't forget to append CrLf (hex 0D0A) at the end of line.

And transfer the file in binary mode,
