Wrong file name?

[Former Member]

My program has a problem finding my file. Is the name wrong in some way?

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload

EXPORTING

filename = 'G:\Test\Testfil_01_051004'

filetype = lc_filetype

CHANGING

data_tab = lt_transar

Can you tell what exactly is your error..

Also what is the value of lc_filetype and file type of Testfil_01_051004

[Former Member]

what is the error you are getting?

try passing the filename in a <b>string</b> type variable

example:::

TYPES:

ty_xline(1024) TYPE x.

DATA:

lf_file TYPE string,

lf_filelength TYPE i,

lt_datatab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_xline.

lf_file = file.

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload

EXPORTING

filename = lf_file

filetype = 'BIN'

IMPORTING

filelength = lf_filelength

CHANGING

data_tab = lt_datatab

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 1.

Hi,

I think you did not give the extension of the file name,

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload

EXPORTING

<b>filename = 'G:\Test\Testfil_01_051004'</b>

should be

<b>filename = 'G:\Test\Testfil_01_051004.txt'</b>

OR whatever the extension of that file..

Hope this helps..

as the others suggested you need to pass it via astring variable with the extension.
