Hi Chee,

Hope this helps you..

Here a successful implementation of Function module "SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT" for users of SAP 46c. It converts an internal table to an xml-table and downloads it.

Thanks Mrutyun!

Well the first link is helpful i will read thru it see if can get something out of it. As for the 2nd method I am aware of it and I am able to do it using DOM but I am more keen in using the transformation method via XSLT. I have rewarded u points...")

thanks Amit Mittal but I have to define the XSLT before I am able to write it into a nested itab. the 'ID' will only work for simple transformation not for my case. thanks anyway

Any one with solution to tis XSLT is still open

athavanraja · ‎2006 Nov 02

Hi,

check this thread i have already given the complete solution (code) for transforming XML to nested ITAB.

Former Member · ‎2006 Nov 07

Hi Raja,

this thread where u provided the full solution have helped me through alot but I am still stucked at reading the values of <NAME>, <PHONE> and <EMAIL>. I still not able to retrieve the values from these tags. For the past weeks I have tried various methods but it was to no avail... I hope its not too much to seek your assistance here... I really appreciate if u or anyone can solve tis here... Points will be rewarded..

thanx

Sorry about the delay, i was away attending TechEd at Bangalore.

Can you provide me the following to check.

1. the itab declaration to which you are trying to transform the xml

2. the actual xml

3. the xslt

Hi Jason

Are u facing problem in the xml file which you uploaded to the internal table??

What exactly you want to do in this program??

regards

mei

Former Member · ‎2006 Nov 17

Hi there!

Well what I am trying to do here is to do a transformation of this XML file using XSLT into a Nested Internal Table.

The program will read in a XML file and transform the XML into a nested internal table. Transformation is done using

CALL TRANSFORMATION('ZTEST11X2A')

. ZTEST11X2A is the XSLT defining the transformation...

Do refer to the previous post in this thread for the Codes, XML file as well as my current XSLT which have problem reading tags under the <header> tag. In another words it is able to read in until <HEADER> level into the tables, the subsequent are not read in....

I hope I am clear with my explaination... so all i need here is someone to look at my XSLT see whats wrong with it... y it is not able to work...

Former Member · ‎2006 Nov 23

hello,

try the following xslt code.
