Hi,

You can use the F.M.

CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_TEX_FORMAT'

EXPORTING

I_FIELD_SEPERATOR = C_FIELD_SEPARATOR

I_LINE_HEADER = I_LINE_HEADER

I_FILENAME = I_FILENAME

TABLES

I_TAB_SAP_DATA = I_TAB_SAP_DATA

CHANGING

I_TAB_CONVERTED_DATA = I_TAB_CONVERTED_DATA.

Here collect the coverted data in I_TAB_CONVERTED_DATA with pipe delimiter.

Then u can download using gui_download F.M.

Regards,

Raj.

Hi Sumit,

Pipe delimited Format is nothing but fields seperated by ' | ' (SHIFT + \).

' | ' ---> Pipe. Like this

000123 | abcd | m-101 | zzzz

It is nothing but downloading file but with ' | ' separator between the fields.

Before Downloading u just concatenate all the fields seperated by the symbol ' | ' .

regards,
