You must use a TYPE X field in 46c as the mentioned class does not exist.

CONSTANTS: gc_tab type x value '09'.

Hai Suchitra

Check the following Code

data v_var1 type x value '09'.

data v_len(5) type n.

constants:

c_ecc6_tab(1) type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.

constants:

c1(3) type c value 333.

data: begin of itab occurs 0,

line(20) type c,

end of itab.

data: begin of itab1 occurs 0,

line1(20) type c,

line2(20) type c,

line3(20) type c,

end of itab1.

concatenate c1 c_ecc6_tab c1 c_ecc6_tab c1 c_ecc6_tab c1

into itab-line.

*concatenate c1 v_var1 c1

• into itab-line.

*open dataset c1 for input in text mode encoding default.

*describe field c1 length v_len in character mode.

do 5 times.

append itab.

enddo.

data xtab1 like itab1.

data v_newvar like itab1-line1.

do 10 times.

itab1-line1 = 'abc'.

itab1-line2 = 'def'.

itab1-line3 = 'ghi'.

append itab1.

clear itab1.

enddo.

*v_tabix = sy-tabix.

*PI_TAB_OUT-text = l_tab_out-text.

*modify PI_TAB_OUT index v_tabix transporting text.

*call function 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
