In this program i has to upload data into internal table with tab delimited format , code is like below

is it correct

CALL FUNCTION 'F4_FILENAME'

• EXPORTING

• PROGRAM_NAME =

• DYNPRO_NUMBER =

• FIELD_NAME =

IMPORTING

file_name = p_upld.

l_file = p_upld.

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

EXPORTING

filename = l_file

filetype = 'ASC'

has_field_separator = 'X'

TABLES

data_tab = t_prgstatus.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

i changed to DAT then also its not working

[former_member156446]

then check the deceleration of t_prgstatus, some where alpha numeric/ numeric values are not allowed..

Hi ,

For FM GUI_UPLOAD, the data type of filename should be STRING.

Check the data type of your variable.
