FM 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT' problem-runtime error.

[Former Member]

Hello to all,

I'm facing the following problem. I'm trying to run a simple program to download data into excel sheet using FM 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT' .

But right after the pop up window of confirmation , concerning access to the file , the program terminates , runtime error . A RAISE statement in the program "SAPLOLEA" raised the exception condition "SYSTEM_FAILURE".

I found another similar thread, but in this,the problem was filename type. Mine is correct. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Regards,

Hi,

Just for info I put the dummy code

DATA: t100_lines TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t001 WITH DEFAULT KEY.

PARAMETERS: p_file LIKE rlgrap-filename DEFAULT 'c:\tmp\test.xls'.

SELECT * FROM t001

INTO TABLE t100_lines.

break-point .

CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT'

EXPORTING

i_filename     = p_file

TABLES

i_tab_sap_data = t100_lines.

cross check once if problem persist, share you code so that we inspect and give solution

Are you able to upload/download data with other reports, are you able to display XLS in place from any ALV report, did you check SAP GUI installation, and did you chek (OSS notes) compatibility between you ECC/SAPGUI/Office versions?

Thank you all for quick replies!

I'm using GUI 730 and my office version is 2007. I thought that would be the problem. But today everything worked perfectly without making any changes. Strange enough!

Thanks all for your time,
