gui_download .

[Former Member]

Hi

Am replacing DOWNLOAD Fm in 4.6 c with

cl_gui_frontend_services => file_save_dialog

and

cl_gui_frontend_serivces => gui_download .

1) A field symbol <itab> for a standard table is assigned to "Data_tab" parameter of DOWNLOAD Fm .

2) I have assigned this <itab> to the changing parameter "data_tab" of

cl_gui_frontend_services => gui_download.

on executing it , it is throwing a dump .

Is there any specific rule to assign a field symbol to

cl_gui_frontend_services => gui_download ?

hi

check the type of changing parameter in the method,you have to declare DATA_ITAB of same type.

Hi Gethanjali,

Use the below sample code for your requirement.

  data: ld_filename type string,
        ld_path type string,
        ld_fullpath type string,
        ld_result type i.

* Display save dialog window
  call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_save_dialog
    exporting
*      window_title      = ' '
      default_extension = 'xls'
      default_file_name = 'accountsdata'
      initial_directory = 'c:\temp\'
    changing
      filename          = ld_filename
      path              = ld_path
      fullpath          = ld_fullpath
      user_action       = ld_result.

Thanks,

Hi,

IN OO for DATA_TAB parameter you have to pass internal table without header line.

Thanks & Regards,

it is related to field-symbols error. nothing to do with GUI_DOWNLOAD.

did you assign the field-symbol.

ex: it_data is internal table which you want to download

assign it_data to <itab> .

i think you are getting the error field-symbol not assigned.

Hi all,

1) The field symbol is assigned to a standard table .

2) the gui_download method also uses standard table as the changing parameter . so type conflict is not a problem

3) I passed even without the header line , stil the dump appears .

post the code once. to see and identify the exact problem.

just debug , keep a break point at gui_download and see field-symbol value incase if it is assigned. if it is not assigned then you will not able to see the field-symbols.
