if i use

file_filter = '*.txt'

the other choices of file type such as ".XLS" is no more there..

what parameter should i put to set the default "save as type" to txt but allow user to select other file type ?

thank you..

Kokwei Wong ,

you can do in this way....

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_save_dialog
    EXPORTING
      window_title      = l_title
      default_extension = 'XLS'
      file_filter       = 'XLS'
    CHANGING
      fullpath          = l_fullpath
      path              = l_path
      filename          = l_filename
    EXCEPTIONS
      OTHERS            = 1.

you can do in this way....

in this case default is 'XLS' and he can choose all the files.

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_save_dialog
    EXPORTING
      window_title      = l_title
      default_extension = 'XLS'
      file_filter       = ' '
    CHANGING
      fullpath          = l_fullpath
      path              = l_path
      filename          = l_filename
    EXCEPTIONS
      OTHERS            = 1.
