File upload interface with gui_upload

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am trying to use the method GUI_UPLOAD of the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.

But the problem is I am not getting a dialog box where we can select the file by browsing our computer.( like the browse button in Windows).

I remember getting this dialog box when using the FM WS_UPLOAD.

But this is obsolete and cannot use in Unicode programs.

What should I do? and how?

can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance.

Goldie.

Hi,

Why do we have to loop at i_file1.

wont we be selecting only 1 file?

[former_member194669]

Here

   changing
      file_table              = i_file1

comes as a table. that's way. if you select MULTISELECTION = "X' you can select multiple files
