Hi,

Use WS_UPLOAD and read the entire line as a single string into an internal table.

Thenuse the SPLIT stmt to read into separate variables.

Eg:

data: begin of itab occurs 0,

line(132),

end of itab.

Use WS_UPLOAD to read into this internal table.

then use: SPLIT itab at '|' into v1 v2 v3 ...

use GUI_UPLOAD, in filetype give it as 'DAT' and field seperator give '|'

by the way when u are passing the filename into FM take care that the filename is in format of string

HI RAHUL,

in gui_upload please tell me to which parameter i should pass the field separator '|'

[rahulkavuri]

u have this commented default when u call the FM, uncomment it

HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR = '|'
