Problem in GUI_DOWNLOAD Function.

71 Views

Hello Friends.

I am trying to do is to download data in a file from a BAPI

structure and make a flat file with this format and

then try to upload the same data in different client

via LSMW.

What happens is that I get the download of the file

contents but the spacing of the characters have

shifted and so when I run the same file in LSMW the

values of the fields do not appear consistent.

Ours is a unicode system ecc 6.0 and when i go in

debugger I see the values in consistent format but

when it comes to download it changes .

kindly please suggest something.

I also tried to write the file directly with open

dataset for output but in that also I get an error

regarding encoding.

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'

EXPORTING

  • BIN_FILESIZE =

filename = i_file

filetype = 'ASC'

append = ' '

write_field_separator = ' '

header = '00'

trunc_trailing_blanks = ' '

write_lf = 'X'

TABLES

data_tab = i_data_tab

I use the most standard settings.

Kindly suggest how can I get the required output.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Sohail
