Hi,

WS_UPLOAD CAN NOT be used in background mode.

You will have to use OPEN DATASET statement to upload the data from file in background mode.

Hope it helps.

WS_UPLOAD can n't be used for upload file in back ground processing.

Hi,

I know i have to upload this file by using open dataset. But my requirement is they run that program in the back ground and i have to download the file from another IP which is located at another server. They everday upload that file periodically . They don't want the user intervention. If we use datasets, again we have to upload that file by user interaction. so what can i do.

Will it be possible for you to try with the Function Modules <b>FTP_CONNECT, FTP_COMMAND, and FTP_DISCONNECT</b>, if it is a different IP address?

I could see more explanations in these links.

Hi paluri,

1. I have to download the file from another IP

In that case one approach is to use

this convention

computername\folder\filename

or

ipaddress\folder\filename

2. this u can also test using your own computer first,

from START-->RUN

reading file from Presentation server will NOT be allowed in background. if you are running a report with this type of reading file, you have to place it in the APPLICATION server & then Use OPEN DATASET, READ DATASET statements to read the contents of the file into your program

Hi Paluri,

1.Use the transaction code 'CG3Z' to upload the file from presentation server to application server.

2.Use the command OPEN DATASET,READ DATASET and CLOSE DATASET for processing the file in the background.

Try using this:

OPEN DATASET fname FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
TRANSFER file_content TO FNAME.
CLOSE DATASET FNAME.

file_content TYPE XSTRING

fname type string

fname contains the path in the app server and file_content is the content of the file.
