Vijay,

I believe UPLOAD is obselete and WS_UPLOAD is just about obselete as well. You should use GUI_UPLOAD.

I don't know that much about them, but I know enough not to use them! :op

Cheers,

Pat.

Hi Vijay,

Both upload and ws_upload does the same functionality, that is transfere data from presentation server to application server or from PC to SAP system(to an internal table).

There are very few difference between the two.

1 Upload requires a User Interaction for uploading i.e., user has to respond to the dialog boxes that appear WS_Upload does not. You just need to specify the file location in the function input parameters itself.

2 upload - u can give the file in run time wsupload - u have to give in Function module

3 upload is meant to be used by abappers. ws_upload is meant to be called by SAP. It is not a standard ABAP command.

4 ws_upload is Obsolete : No longer supported by SAP. Use GUI_UPLOAD instead.

Thanks,

Susmitha.

Kindly reward points for helpful answers.

Do not use ws_upload nor gui_upload. Both are absolete cause they are not unicode compatible.

Use Class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES and method GUI_UPLOAD or GUI_DOWNLOAD instead.
