Need creation- and changing-date of a PC-File

Posted on Jan 10, 2007 at 08:10 AM 24 Views

Hi all,

is it possible to get the creation- and changing-date of a file

which is stored on PC or presentation-server?

I will upload the file and avoid, that the entries are inserted in

SAP more than one time.

Perhaps anyone knows a better way?

Thanks

Regards, Dieter

    Hi,

    may be by using cl_gui_frontend_services? For example

    CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_list_files

    EXPORTING

    directory = l_temp_dir

    CHANGING

    file_table = tab_file

    count = count.

    LOOP AT tab_file INTO wa_file_table.

    WRITE:/ wa_file_table-filename.

    ENDLOOP.

    In table tab_file there is access time/date and write time/date.

    Regards,

    Christian

      Hi Christian,

      i solve it in this way:

      DATA: COUNT TYPE I.

      *

      DATA: WA_FILE_TABLE TYPE FILE_INFO,

      TAB_FILE TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF FILE_INFO.

      *

      CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>DIRECTORY_LIST_FILES

      EXPORTING

      DIRECTORY = 'D:\sap\daten'

      FILTER = 'lv.xls' "The file i need Information

      CHANGING

      FILE_TABLE = TAB_FILE

      COUNT = COUNT.

      *

      IF COUNT = 1.

      *

      LOOP AT TAB_FILE INTO WA_FILE_TABLE.

      WRITE:/ WA_FILE_TABLE-FILENAME(20),

      WA_FILE_TABLE-WRITEDATE,

      WA_FILE_TABLE-WRITETIME.

      ENDLOOP.

      *

      ENDIF.

      Thanks for your help

      Regards, Dieter

    1)if file is on PC u can just right click and check the properties to know whn it was created or updated..

    2) u can use methods of class cl_gui_frontend_services.

    3) if u r having some primary key in tha file then u can simply update the data from fiel data.

    4)otherwise u can make use of field last chnage if it exists in ur table to be updated..
