File conversion from text to CSV on present server without using GUI FM

[Former Member]

Hi Folks,

This question may sound a bit weired but here it is. I have to convert a text file to csv using a SAP ABAP Report.

The file is located on the presentation server and I am using FM's <b>GUI upload</b> and <b>GUI download</b> to do the same as the number of fields change and we perform some operations on the data coming from the text file. Actually, the csv file is supposed to act as a source system for SAP BI.

Now my question is is there any other way by which we can do it without using the above function modules.

Thanks

Hi,

You upload the Text file using GUI_UPLOAD and now you will have the records in the internal table and then use GUI_DOWNLOAD to download the file in CSV format.

Any other method that u know of where we need not to do a GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD but just change the file by not uploading and downloading.

Thanks
