use <b>CG3Y</b> transaction

Hi,

You can use the Tcode CG3Y to copy data from App Server to your Front End.

CG3Y - to download file from application server.

CG3Z - to upload file from presentation server to application server.

oops I forgot to write that it is in SAP BW, that means no CG3Y or CG3Z. I really need to write my own program for that.

you don't need screen shots, it's easy.

SXDA -> go to -> analyze files and data structures -> copy file

fill source and target. That's all
