Dear Sanee,

       Once check your security settings in  GUI, might be accidentally denied access rule might have been applied or else use other name.Can u tell which exception is being raised.

[Former Member]

no exception is being raised.  two dbf files can be write into disk ,but the ’test2.dbf‘ can't  open by other program,they always say "the table will need to be repaired " .

maybe the problem is SAP think '一二三四一二三四'  is 8 bytes ,but micosoft system think '一二三四一二三四' is 16 bytes ,

how can i export a right format file ?

Dear Sanee,

Please open in excel and check. since the second append is making two rows  in excel, so please check encoding type and separators of gui download function module..

maktx type char16,

but i think it isn't  the best way .
