hi,

There is no TXT Type .. so give either ASC OR DAT or BIN type as follows

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
EXPORTING
filename = 'C:test.txt'
FILETYPE = 'DAT'
HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'
* HEADER_LENGTH = 0
* READ_BY_LINE = 'X'
* DAT_MODE = ' '
* CODEPAGE = ' '
* IGNORE_CERR = ABAP_TRUE
* REPLACEMENT = '#'
* CHECK_BOM = ' '
* VIRUS_SCAN_PROFILE =
* NO_AUTH_CHECK = ' '
* IMPORTING
* FILELENGTH =
* HEADER =
tables
data_tab = itab

FILE_OPEN_ERROR = 1
FILE_READ_ERROR = 2

hi Reema,

Here is something from help

File Type (ASC or BIN)

Description

Describes how the upload file is read.

Value range

o 'BIN'

A binary representation of the internal table is read from the file.

No conversion or interpretation is carried out. Usually, this produces

meaningful results only if the internal table consists of a single

column of type 'X'.

o 'DAT'

The components of the internal table are filled from the file. If the

table contains more than one column, the entries in the file must be

separated by tabs. Conversion exits are not carried out.

For the different data types, the following applies:

- I or N or P or F

The numbers must be formatted according to the decimal representation

defined in the user settings.

- D

The date must be formatted according to the date format defined in

the

user settings.

- T

The time must have format hh:mm:ss.

o 'ASC'.

The components of the internal table are filled from the file. Only data

types of fixed length are allowed. The data must be contained on the

file in its entire length.

Default

ASC

Hi,

You have the extension for the filename as TXT but not the FILETYPE

check out the available filetypes

'ASC' :

ASCII format. The table is transferred as text. The conversion exits are

carried out. The output format additionally depends on the parameters

CODEPAGE, TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS, and TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS_EOL.

'IBM' :

ASCII format with IBM codepage conversion (DOS). This format corresponds

to the 'ASC' format when using target codepage 1103. This codepage is

often used for data exchange by disc.

'DAT' :

Column-by-column transfer. With this format, the data is transferred as

with ASC text. However, no conversion exists are carried out and the

columns are separated by tab characters. This format creates files that

can be uploaded again with gui_upload or ws_upload.

'DBF' :

The data is downloaded in dBase format. Because in this format the file

types of the individual columns are included, import problems, for

example, into Microsoft Excel can be avoided, especially when

interpreting numeric values.

'WK1' :

The data is downloaded in Lotus 1-2-3 format.

'BIN' :

Binary format. The data is transferred in binary format. There is no

formatting and no codepage conversion. The data is interpreted row by

row and not formatted in columns. Specify the length of the data in

parameter BIN_FILESIZE. The table should consist of a column of type X,

because especially in Unicode systems the conversion of structured data

into binary data leads to errors.

Hi Reema,

In the FM kepp value of Filetype = 'ASC', using this u can also upload the .txt files.

I think this will help u.

Reward Points if helpful.

Try with this

w_nom = 'C:\test.txt'

CALL FUNCTION 'FILE_GET_NAME'

EXPORTING

logical_filename = w_nom

• parameter_1 =

IMPORTING

file_name = w_fichier

EXCEPTIONS

file_not_found = 1

OTHERS = 2.

OPEN DATASET w_fichier FOR input IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.

<b> APPEND error msg</b>

ELSE.

do.

READ DATASET w_fichier INTO ws_file.

IF sy-SUBRC = 0.

APPEND ws_file TO wt_file.

else.

exit.

ENDIF.

enddo.

ENDIF.

CLOSE DATASET w_fichier .

Hope this helps you,

Hii,

I am reading the file from the presentation server only...

Hi,

If for filtype ASC, wrong data is uploaded, then recreate the TXT file which you are uploading. Create the file in Excel and goto File->Save as-> select file type as TAB delimited and save the file with .txt extension.

Now try to upload the file.

Hi Reema,

Do the following to get the correct data in upload.

Open excel, Write the flat file data. Save the file as TAB DELIMITED (.TXT)

Then use GUI_UPLOAD as follows:

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

EXPORTING

FILENAME = 'C:\test.txt'

FILETYPE = 'ASC'

HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'

• HEADER_LENGTH = 0

• READ_BY_LINE = 'X'

• DAT_MODE = ' '

• CODEPAGE = ' '

• IGNORE_CERR = ABAP_TRUE

• REPLACEMENT = '#'

• CHECK_BOM = ' '

• VIRUS_SCAN_PROFILE =

• NO_AUTH_CHECK = ' '

• IMPORTING

• FILELENGTH =

• HEADER =

tables

data_tab = itab

EXCEPTIONS

FILE_OPEN_ERROR = 1

FILE_READ_ERROR = 2

NO_BATCH = 3

GUI_REFUSE_FILETRANSFER = 4

INVALID_TYPE = 5

NO_AUTHORITY = 6

UNKNOWN_ERROR = 7

BAD_DATA_FORMAT = 8

HEADER_NOT_ALLOWED = 9

SEPARATOR_NOT_ALLOWED = 10

HEADER_TOO_LONG = 11

UNKNOWN_DP_ERROR = 12

ACCESS_DENIED = 13

DP_OUT_OF_MEMORY = 14

DISK_FULL = 15

DP_TIMEOUT = 16

OTHERS = 17

.

Also your internal table should be having the appropriate field length.

Try this. & don't forget to give points.

Hemant.
