The default is ASC, you can find that in the function module code.

Hi Sudha,

thanks for ur answer.

Plz look into this.

I have program with internal table declared as below with 2 fields.

when i specify the input file using FILENAME = P_FILE.....

the input file has only one field values(i.e. only matnr values).

So, I am getting error : "unable to load input file".

so my query is Can i specify input file with only matnr values and download into internal table (ITAB_MATNR--which has 2 fields)

DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB_MATNR OCCURS 0,

MATNR LIKE MARA-MATNR,

COUNT TYPE I,

END OF ITAB_MATNR.

CALL FUNCTION 'WS_UPLOAD'

EXPORTING

FILENAME = P_FILE

• filetype = ftype

TABLES

DATA_TAB = ITAB_MATNR

EXCEPTIONS

CONVERSION_ERROR = 1

FILE_OPEN_ERROR = 2

FILE_READ_ERROR = 3

INVALID_TABLE_WIDTH = 4

INVALID_TYPE = 5

NO_BATCH = 6

UNKNOWN_ERROR = 7

GUI_REFUSE_FILETRANSFER = 8

OTHERS = 9.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE E699(PP) WITH 'Unable to load input file' P_FILE.

ENDIF.

Hi Mallikarjun,

The default file type for the FM WS_UPLOAD is 'ASC'.

It'll take the ASCII format.
