Hi Lisa,

You always have the option to download the report from the output.

System>List>Save-->Local file

here use Unconverted.

Output screen-->

List>save>unconverted-->path/filename.txt

Hi,

After report is executed use the following link

list->save->file

or

use pass your final internal table

to FM <b>GUI_DOWNLOAD in program.</b>

Hello,

From your output you can allways dowload the output to a text file trought System->List->Save->Local File (Unconverted) or if want to do it from the program itself you may have your list output on an internal table and call function do dowload it to local file.

Dunno if that was what you wanted ... hope i helped

Hi again,

1. did u try my code

2. It does exactly how u want.

3. First the report is written thru WRITE statements.

4. Then the LIST Fm

Fetches the list into internal table.

5. The gui_download, downloads this internal table to text file !

You can use the FM LIST_TO_ASCI also.

[RichHeilman]

Directly from the same program, you can do something like this.

report zrich_0003 .

data: list like abaplist occurs 0 with header line.
data: begin of listout occurs 0,
      line(1024) type c,
      end of listout.

do 100 times.

  write:/ sy-index.

enddo.


call function 'SAVE_LIST'
* EXPORTING
*   LIST_INDEX               = '0'
  tables
    listobject               = list
 exceptions
   list_index_invalid       = 1
   others                   = 2
          .

call function 'LIST_TO_ASCI'
     tables
          listobject         = list
          listasci           = listout
     exceptions
          empty_list         = 1
          list_index_invalid = 2
          others             = 3.


call function 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
     exporting
          filename = 'C:Test.txt'
     tables
          data_tab = listout.
