Hi Every one ,

I developed some reports which were going to an ftp. i was using fm ftpa. when i was tesing i was using sapftp. but i need to run these reports in background so i used sapftpa. Now the main problem when this report was run in forground the whole data was coming in one row in tabdelimited format and now when i m running these report in background with sapftpa from application server, the structure of data is change now every line is having one data. Kindly give me some clarification if i wanna whole data in one line is it possible or not becoz these files are used in interfacing so thirdparty developer need to change the whole chromes to parse the data.

Any help would b of gr8 importance

Hi Abhishek,

I think, when you are taking data from Presentation server, the file has data separated by tab, that's why it coming in one line. But when you are picking from App Server, all the fields data are put in next line so every line is having one data. In this case, If you want all the data in same line why not you are READING the data from dataset line by line and cancatenating into a string and putting in the table?

Thanks
