Hi,

i set the path as the SAP WorkDir, it worked. but when i set path as others ,it didn't work.

Do i have to set the path as SAP WorkDir? Is there any solution? Hope your reply.

thanks very much.

no with the other path it is not working...

i tried doing that but the folder and file creation in vista needs lot of authorizations.. may be that is the reason it is not working...

i tried to create a file in c:\ProgramFiles.. it is not getting created there.. where as in my own folder i'm able to create a file...

Hi,

i create the file under the path of SAP gui and it works. In other path the sap program doesn't have the authorization to access the file in VISTA.

Thanks all.
