In Gui_download put filetype = 'DBT'

  'DBF' :

   Data is downloaded in dBase format. Since in this format the data types
   of the individual columns are stored as well, you can often avoid import
   problems, for example, into Microsoft Excel, especially when
   interpreting numeric values.

in tables ull have a parameter fieldname put all ur header feild names in dat.

 Short Text

     Field Names for the 'DBF' File Type

 Description

     Optional table with column names for the individual columns.

     o   'DBF': The column names are entered into the structure definition of
         the DBF file.

Cheers,

jose.

Hi,

U need to call that function module twice.

For the first time u need to pass the contents with header data.

For the second time u need to pass the intenal table with the data,but set the append option.

APPEND = 'X'.

This will surley solves ur problem...

hi,

check the below sample code..

Often we face situations where we need to download internal table contents onto an Excel sheet. We are familiar with the function module GUI_DOWNLOAD. Though this function module downloads the contents onto the Excel sheet, there cannot be any column headings or we cannot differentiate the primary keys just by seeing the Excel sheet.

For this purpose, we can use the function module XXL_FULL_API. The Excel sheet which is generated by this function module contains the column headings and the key columns are highlighted with a different color. Other options that are available with this function module are we can swap two columns or supress a field from displaying on the Excel sheet. The simple code for the usage of this function module is given below.

Program code :

-


REPORT Excel.

TABLES:

sflight.

  • header data................................

DATA :

header1 LIKE gxxlt_p-text VALUE 'Suresh',

header2 LIKE gxxlt_p-text VALUE 'Excel sheet'.

  • Internal table for holding the SFLIGHT data

DATA BEGIN OF t_sflight OCCURS 0.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE sflight.

DATA END OF t_sflight.

  • Internal table for holding the horizontal key.

DATA BEGIN OF t_hkey OCCURS 0.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE gxxlt_h.

DATA END OF t_hkey .

  • Internal table for holding the vertical key.

DATA BEGIN OF t_vkey OCCURS 0.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE gxxlt_v.

DATA END OF t_vkey .

  • Internal table for holding the online text....

DATA BEGIN OF t_online OCCURS 0.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE gxxlt_o.

DATA END OF t_online.

  • Internal table to hold print text.............

DATA BEGIN OF t_print OCCURS 0.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE gxxlt_p.

DATA END OF t_print.

  • Internal table to hold SEMA data..............

DATA BEGIN OF t_sema OCCURS 0.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE gxxlt_s.

DATA END OF t_sema.

  • Retreiving data from sflight.

SELECT * FROM sflight

INTO TABLE t_sflight.

  • Text which will be displayed online is declared here....

t_online-line_no = '1'.

t_online-info_name = 'Created by'.

t_online-info_value = 'SURESH KUMAR PARVATHANENI'.

APPEND t_online.

  • Text which will be printed out..........................

t_print-hf = 'H'.

t_print-lcr = 'L'.

t_print-line_no = '1'.

t_print-text = 'This is the header'.

APPEND t_print.

t_print-hf = 'F'.

t_print-lcr = 'C'.

t_print-line_no = '1'.

t_print-text = 'This is the footer'.

APPEND t_print.

  • Defining the vertical key columns.......

t_vkey-col_name = 'CARRID'.

APPEND t_hkey.
