OLE Method SAVEAS

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am using OLE to open and save an excel file in a different format. But the code is not working.

This is the code I am using:

INCLUDE ole2incl.

DATA file_in TYPE rlgrap-filename.
DATA file_out TYPE rlgrap-filename.

DATA excel TYPE ole2_object.
DATA workbook TYPE ole2_object.

file_in = 'C:\Read.xls'.
file_out = 'C:\Write.csv'.

CREATE OBJECT excel 'Excel.Application'.
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
  WRITE: / 'No EXCEL creation possible'.
  STOP.
ENDIF.

CALL METHOD OF excel 'WORKBOOKS' = workbook.

CALL METHOD OF workbook 'Open' EXPORTING #1 = file_in.


CALL METHOD OF workbook 'SAVEAS' EXPORTING #1 = file_out #2 = '6'.
CALL METHOD OF workbook 'CLOSE'.
CALL METHOD OF excel 'QUIT'.

* Code errors out here with sy-subrc = 2
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
  WRITE: / 'OLE ERROR: RETURN CODE ='(i10), sy-subrc.
  STOP.
ENDIF.

FREE OBJECT workbook.
FREE OBJECT excel.

Please help me out solve this one,

Thanks,

CD
