GUI_UPLOAD and Unicode

[Former Member]

Hi,

I want to use GUI_UPLOAD to load an ASCII file with Czech Characters. I try to save my file in .txt format UTF-8. If i read the file with notepad then i have all my characters but when i load in SAP I lost some characters - Who have a solution - I'm in 4.6C - I put in SAPlogon page code 1404 and language CS .

DATA: BEGIN OF f1 OCCURS 0,

altkn(10) TYPE c,

bldat(10) TYPE c, "tt.mm.jj

rart(15) TYPE c,

• insert michel

zuonr(18),

xblnr(20) TYPE c,

• name1(40) TYPE c,

waers(5) TYPE c,

brutt(13) TYPE c,

fwbtr(13) TYPE c,

faedt(10) TYPE c,

zterm(4) TYPE c,

kunnr(10) TYPE c,

sgtxt(49) TYPE c, => i can find VANĚK

....

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

EXPORTING

filename = pcfil

• FILETYPE = 'BIN'

has_field_separator = fsepa

• HEADER_LENGTH = 0

• READ_BY_LINE = 'X'

• DAT_MODE = ' '

CODEPAGE = 'UTF8'

• IGNORE_CERR = ABAP_TRUE

Do not use UTF-8 when saving in notepad, do u have a non unicode option in notepad, we have ANSI in US english.

My Pc is in French Language.

I try - saving Excel File in unicode - Opening this file with notepad and saving in ANSI - Result : It's the best until now, I does not lose the character in its entirety, only certain accent. we are touching the solution - have you something else ?

Hi,

Try Saving the notepad file in Unicode Encoding..

I guess that should solve the problem..

Hope that helps

u have to uplaod the font of Czech Characters

into ur local pc.

1)At the Operating system level install the Czech language.[Control panel - >Regional and language Option - >language Tab - > Click on Install Files for Czech languages] If these language already installed then click on Detail and add the Czech languages 2) At SAP level click on Customizing of Local layout[Alt+F12] and click on options.Go to tab I18N and click on Activate the multi-byte functionalities to support check box.

Same problem - To keep all the accents, i must save in UTF-8 and i have the same problem with gui_upload.I've just seen that my function GUI_UPLOAD in this system (4.6C) is not the same than in 4.7 - Only these parameters for export -

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

EXPORTING

FILENAME =

• FILETYPE = 'ASC'

• HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR = ' '

• HEADER_LENGTH = 0

• READ_BY_LINE = 'X'

• DAT_MODE = ' '

I don't have the possibility to choose the codepage. Perhaps it's the reason ?

Are you using windows XP?

In the PC regional settings, go to advanced tab and change Language for non-unicode programs to Czech. You might need to restart the system.

If you are using SAPGUI 6.2 and above, keep the logon pad language settings default.

save the file in notepad using default first, if all characters are not showing up, try ansi.

What code page is your 4.6c appserver is using for language CS?
