Problem in downloading data from application server

[Former Member]

Hi,

I tried the following code for downloading data to PC in background:

PARAMETERS: p_file LIKE rlgrap-filename OBLIGATORY.

OPEN DATASET p_file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

LOOP AT itab INTO istab.

TRANSFER istab TO p_file.

ENDLOOP.

ENDIF.

Here, the contents are not getting transferred to the p_file. I give the path of the file while executing the program.

First of all, the file is not getting created in PC. And the statement 'OPEN DATASET p_file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT'. is working but unable to read after that using READ DATASET statement.

This will create a file in the application server with the name you pass in p_file say '.\w_file.txt', check the file in AL11 after creating in.

PARAMETERS: p_file LIKE rlgrap-filename OBLIGATORY.


OPEN DATASET p_file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.


LOOP AT itab INTO istab.

TRANSFER istab TO p_file.

ENDLOOP.

CLOSE DATASET p_file.

HI,

You can use this code .............

OPEN DATASET gv_dataset for input in text mode encoding default.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

DO.

clear gv_rec.

READ DATASET gv_dataset INTO gv_rec.

if sy-subrc <> 0.

append gv_rec to gt_raw.

exit.

endif.

append gv_rec to gt_raw.

ENDDO.

CLOSE DATASET gv_dataset.

ELSE.

gv_retcode = 1.

ENDIF.

Hi

If you need to transfer a file in Application server the addition FOR OUTPUT is right, so if you can't transfer any data, u should check if the system can create the file: so the value of SY-SUBRC.

U make sure the structure ISTAB has char field only.

This will create a file in the application server with the name you pass in p_file say '.\w_file.txt', check the file in AL11 after creating in.Use CG3y to download data into presentation server
