Hi all ,

In our company recently we have converted ourselves from MSEXCEL to openoffice excel .

i have created program to convert msexcel data to itab using fm (ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE). But now it is not working with open office .

Does any one know which function module will convert open office data into itab or how can i convert openoffice excel data into internal table .

Hoping for a sooner reply .

Hi,

An option is to use FM 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE'

CALL FUNCTION 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE'

EXPORTING

FILENAME = xls_file

I_BEGIN_COL = 1

I_BEGIN_ROW = 2

I_END_COL = 6

I_END_ROW = 500

TABLES

INTERN = INTERTAB

EXCEPTIONS

INCONSISTENT_PARAMETERS = 1

UPLOAD_OLE = 2.

Another way is to the office intergration utilities, especialy the speadsheet interface "i_oi_spreadsheet" and "i_oi_document_proxy".

here is a sample code which imports and exports from excel to R/3 and R/3 to excel.

hope this might help you.
