hi,

you can use method FILE_COPY of class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES

hope this helps

I've already tried that class and method, but it didn't worked on my url. http://www.cs.mfcr.cz/spd_internet/geteko.aspx?download=G

mayby the problem is that it is not direct url.

i am not sure if this will copy fiel from external url. try this first if it recognizes the source CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_EXIST

[former_member1033672]

no, it returns result EQ space. I think, cl_gui_frontend_services is not suitable for that

if you are on a system prior to WAS6.20 you can use http_post or http_get function modules. (do a where used list in your system youwill find sample programs)

if you are on was 6.20 or above you can use client cl_http_client class to do the same.
