Hi Krishna,

Try to pass the full file path along with the file name to the OPEN DATA filename variable.

Make Sure you are passing the full file path and the filename type should be of rlgrap-filename.

like

DATA: ck_file TYPE rlgrap-filename.

8 often means dataset permissions does not allow the SAP userid open/read privileges...check permissions....

Hi Krishna,

OPEN DATASET filename

Please check the content of (string) field msg, it has the error. What is your filter ?

Hi,

MSG variable contains the string "perm"...

So it mean that some issues related to access/authorization.
