Check the type of variable u r passing to FM....lv_file_name...

And debug to see whether ur variable contain value while passing to FM!

[Former Member]

I am not passing any filename .

In execution it asks for file uploading then i ll select the file.

[Former Member]

To FM u have to pass the path...

check the variable before passing to FM...whether it contains path...

p_file TYPE rlgrap-filename . --- >> declare like this to get the path

Hi

Once you have selected the file name, that has to be passed to the Fumction Module Gui_Upload in the export parameter filename.

If you are first storing the selected filename in a local variable then check the data type of the variable. It should be of type C.

If you are directly passing that filename to FM, try passing it in between inverted comas(' ').

Dear Ahmed,

Check your file type. It should be of type string. But when you select file path from f4 functinality for that file type should RLgrap-filename. In this case you can transfer date to string type file.

or else if your path is fix. try with hard coded path in FM.

Vijay

Hi,

UPLOAD fm expects an input file name which is of type rlgrap-filename which is of character128 datatype.But the file name length may exceed 128.

Whereas in GUI_UPLOAD the type of the filename is string.

Hence declare the filename as string type.
