Hi!

Try class 'C_OI_DOCUMENT_VIEWER'. There is also an example program 'SAPRDEMOVIEWING'. This should cover at least pdf and ppt (I didn't try email documents).

Best regards, Manfred

Hello Adbul,

where are the documents stored(file server,KM,Content Server)? If the frontend has access to the documents you can use CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>EXECUTE.

CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>EXECUTE

EXPORTING

DOCUMENT = 'S:\temp\test.ppt'

OPERATION = 'OPEN'.

Hi Abdul,

It's true. You have to call the method with an URL.

Local files on the presentation server can be addressed by URL "FILE://" followed by the full pathname of the document. I am not sure which kind of path separators to use ("/" or "\" on a Windows systems). Obligatory is "FILE://" ("FILE:
" doesn't work!).

Best regards, Manfred
