Hi Sri Praveena,

=> You can download data from Application server using the statements <i><b>OPEN_DATASET & CLOSE_DATASET</b></i>.

DATA FNAME(60) VALUE 'myfile'.

OPEN DATASET FNAME FOR INPUT.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
  WRITE / 'File opened'.
  .....
ELSE.
  WRITE / 'File not found'.
ENDIF.

This example opens the file "myfile" for reading.

From here, the file is open in read access mode as per your requirement.

=> Use the transaction <i><b>CG3Y</b></i> for downloading the file from application server. This can also be used in programming.

This sort out your query.

PS Plz close the thread by rewarding each reply.

Hi,

Check the following code:

• Retrieve Data file from Application server(Upload from Unix)

DATA: i_file like rlgrap-filename value '/usr/sap/tmp/file.txt'.

OPEN DATASET i_file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE.

IF sy-subrc NE 0.

MESSAGE e999(za) WITH 'Error opening file' i_file.

ENDIF.

DO.

• Reads each line of file individually

READ DATASET i_file INTO wa_datatab.

• Perform processing here

• .....

ENDDO.

Hope this helps.

Reward if helpful.
