Hi All,

We have a program that is using GUI_DOWNLOAD to download the results in text and .dbf format. In foreground it is working fine.But in background the job is getting cancelled with a log that "Error in Downloading file."

Please let me know if there is any solution for this.

Hi,

We can not use these function module in the background schedule, this will give the error in the background schedule, we can download to the Application server in the background , but we can not Download the data to the Desktop(Presentation server) in the background

Hi,

GUI_DOWNLOAD does not work properly in the background.

You can change the GUI_DOWNLOAD by

'open dataset .. for output... ' and 'close dataset..' and use 'transfer..' to fill up the file.

regards,

Rolf
