Function Module which can create a File...?

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I need a function a module which can create a file in a specified directory with a specified name from an internal table.

Basically a function module which will have following input parameters

File name

Directory

Field Delimiter

Internal table

For eg; GUI_DOWNLOAD

But this Function Module doesn’t work in the back ground.

Cheers,

Chaitu.

Hi chaitanya,

I couldn't find a function module which will help for your requirement.

Instead there is some other alternate solution for that one.

1) u can use open dataset to create a file name and store in the application server.

2) using transaction CG3Z - u can transfer a file from the front end to the application server.

Regards...

First of all, what has this to do with object oriented abap?

Second, there is no way to create a file on the presentation server while the program is running in background. Running in background, the report does not have a connection to sapgui.

You can create files on the application server using open dataset.

Hello Chaitu

Not sure if there is a function module or class available for download on application server.

However, Rainers answer appears to be not fully correct:
