Hi Somya,

When you read the file in your program from al11 you will get the data properly. As the data displayed there may be stored in some other format.

Try using FM RZL_READ_FILE

Hi,

I am using ECC6.0.

I think the EXCEL file is stored in compressed format to save space.

Please let me know how to decompress etc.

I tried using the function moduel

text_convert_xls_to_sap.

How do I pass the parameter to I_filename.

Regards,
