Hi all,

I have to write to a file on the application server. I had been given the logical name, logical path name and physical name. Suggest how to use these parameters and get the path where to store the file.

Thanks & Regards,

Kasinath.

  • Open Dataset

catch system-exceptions DATASET_CANT_OPEN = 8.

open dataset UNIX_FILE for output in text mode encoding default.

endcatch.

  • Write to Dataset

loop at IT_STR into IS_STR.

catch system-exceptions DATASET_NOT_OPEN = 0 .

transfer IS_STR-STR to UNIX_FILE.

endcatch.

endloop.

if SY-SUBRC eq 0.

message S138(ZSM) with 'Data Downloaded to Unix File'.

endif.

  • Close Dataset

close dataset UNIX_FILE.

Regards
