File processing in ABAP...

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have one excel file A which has couple of records and another excel file B with couple of records. Now I want

to read each record of excel file A and see if it is in B. If it is in B then create a new excel file Cexcluding that

entry and keep only those records from file A which are not in B. How can I do this in ABAP ?

Excel A:

Mary 13 walnut st

John 17 Anderson Ave

Tim 20 Cooper house

Excel B:

John

Jack

So the new excel file C should have only following:

Mary 13 Walnut st

Tim 29 Cooper house

Rajesh.

Upload Excel File A to internal table ITABA.

Upload Excel File B to internal table ITABB.

LOOP AT ITABA.

CHECK IF RECORD IS PRESENT IN ITABB.

IF NO

POPULATE ITABC.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

Download ITABC as a new Excel fiile.

You can use following function module to upload Excel file to ABAP

call function 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE'

exporting

filename = file

i_begin_col = '1'

i_begin_row = '1'

i_end_col = '200'

i_end_row = '5000'

tables

intern = xcel

exceptions

inconsistent_parameters = 1

upload_ole = 2

others = 3.

Hi,

Try like this.

Save excel files as txt files and use gui_upload FM.Populate two internal tables say ITAB1 TAB2.

LOOP AT ITAB1.

READ TABLE ITAB2 WITH KEY NAME = ITAB1-NAME.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

MOVE ITAB1 TO ITAB3.

ENDIF.

THEN USE GUI_DOWNLOAD TO create new excel file
