Yes, you need to use an index

Here are the variants for insert

1. INSERT [wa INTO|INITIAL LINE INTO] itab [INDEX idx].

2. INSERT [wa INTO|INITIAL LINE INTO] TABLE itab.

3. INSERT LINES OF itab1 [FROM idx1] [TO idx2]

INTO itab2 [INDEX idx3].

4. INSERT LINES OF itab1 [FROM idx1] [TO idx2]

INTO TABLE itab2.

Where are you writing the text file??

If you are using GUI_download, then you can pass the header text( in a different internal table) to the FM.

If you are using open dataset you can write the header first and then the internal table.

I dont think inserting text in the data table is a good idea.

First create an internal table with header line only and in the second u keep all data.After that use FM GUI_Download and mark Append = 'X' in the FM.Thats it,u will get the desired output.
