hi,

<b>DOWNLOAD</b> is function used to download the data from a internal table to presentation server.here you get a dialog- box to enter the path of the file name.

this function module is applicable upto 4.6c version only, it is obsote in 4.7.

this function module has default 'DAT' file type.

<b>WS_DOWNLOAD</b> also perfoms the same function , but without screen. here you do not get a dialog-box, rather you need to type the path of the file name.

this function module is applicable upto 4.6c version only, it is obsote in 4.7.

this function module has default 'ASCII' file type.

<b>GUI_DOWNLOAD</b> also perfoms the same function , but without screen. here you do not get a dialog-box, rather you need to type the path of the file name.

this function module is applicable in 4.7 version.

this FM doesn't support file type 'DAT'.
