Converting RAW1024 data type into String

[Former Member]

Hi Guyz,

Please share  your ideas on below scenario .

Using FM  "SCMS_AO_TABLE_GET"  I get the Data on "Tables tab"  -> RAW1024 format (It contains documents .xls,pdf,.txt,msg)

Now i need to upload that table data in Application server & later i need to retrieve it.

How to convert raw1024 data type??

It's a table of lines of 1024 bytes each. You may convert it into an XSTRING variable, by using function module SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING. You also need to pass the size (number of bytes) so that the result does not contain useless extra bytes.

You write this XSTRING to the application server by a single TRANSFER xstring TO dataset (with of course the OPEN and CLOSE DATASET around).

First step : It's a table of lines of 1024 bytes each. You may convert it into an XSTRING variable, by using function module SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING. You also need to pass the size (number of bytes) so that the result does not contain useless extra bytes.

Second step : search the web for SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING.

Thanks. Could you tell more?

PS: as per the The SCN Rules of Engagement, a "like" is better than a "thanks" (what you also did, so double usage).

Hi Rossi,

I used FM SCM_DOWNLOAD in that  using  "tvarvc" table  i specified the app server path and save it.
