[Former Member]

DOWNLOAD function module is obsolete in ECC6.0.

What is the replacement for DOWNLOAD function module in ECC6.0 ?

I have tried with method:GUI_DOWNLOAD and Class: CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.

But FIELDNAMES is missing in TABLES.

Please sugest me right method to be used in ECC6.0.

    endif.

You have the fieldnames as well in the fm : GUI_DOWNLOAD.

And you are on the right funtion module. please go thru it in SE37 where in you can find the fieldnames as well
