Hi,

Check this one

  • Download internal table to presentation server file(PC)

  • Separating fields/columns by a tab

DATA: ld_filename TYPE string,

  • Pre version 4.7 declaration e_file like rlgrap-filename.

DATA: begin of it_datatab occurs 0,

col1(50) type c,

col2(50) type c,

col3(50) type c,

  • etc....

end of it_datatab.

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'

EXPORTING

filename = ld_filename

filetype = 'ASC'

  • APPEND = 'X'

write_field_separator = 'X'

  • CONFIRM_OVERWRITE = 'X'

TABLES

data_tab = it_datatab[]

EXCEPTIONS

file_open_error = 1

file_write_error = 2

OTHERS = 3.

Hi,

DATA lv_file TYPE string.

lv_file = p_file.

CLEAR w_download.

w_download-matnr = text-033.

*This will append the header.

INSERT w_download INTO i_download INDEX 1.

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'

EXPORTING

  • Local Variable declaration

DATA lv_file TYPE string.

lv_file = p_file.

w_download-werks = text-032.

INSERT w_download INTO i_download INDEX 1.
