Hi Padma,

Use method FILE_OPEN_DIALOG from the CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES class.

hi,

chk out this code

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_open_dialog

EXPORTING

window_title = 'Select file for download'

default_extension = '.txt'

DEFAULT_FILENAME = '.txt'

file_filter = '.txt ,.txt.', '.xls', '.pdf'

initial_directory = 'C:\'

CHANGING

file_table = li_filetable

rc = lv_return

EXCEPTIONS

file_open_dialog_failed = 1

cntl_error = 2

error_no_gui = 3

OTHERS = 4

.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE e003 WITH text-015.

ELSE.

READ TABLE li_filetable INTO lw_filetable INDEX 1.

p_fnam2 = lw_filetable-filename.

ENDIF.

thanks
