Hello Experts,

I am opening an excel workbook from BDS which contains 12 Sheets. Of the 12 sheets i want to get the data of particular sheet(Say sheet 5) back to the intenal table. Please let me know which methods or classes should i use to acheive this requirement.

FYI : I have used methods like SAVE_DOCUMENT_TO_TABLE.. But am not getting the data as required.

Any kind of help will be appreciated.

Regards

Mishra

Use method SELECT_SHEET(Interface I_OI_SPREADSHEET) to select the specific sheet from which want to read the data. Then use method GET_RANGES_DATA (Interface I_OI_SPREADSHEET) to read the data using the range defined in the excel sheet. If no range is created in template create a dyanamic range for the data you want to read and use the same in the method.

You can refer the following link to check the use of the method GET_RANGES_DATA.

Hi, thanks for this example.

I have a question.

How can I get the dimensions of a sheet?

To avoid having to truncate the number of rows and columns, since how many records will come in each sheet.

I really appreciate your help.
