WS_DOWNLOAD - blank line at the end of the file

[former_member186444]

I have an old program to maintain and it's using WS_DOWNLOAD to download a file to a pc. The function module is adding an additional blank line to the file that we do not want.

any ideas ?

thanks.

hi check this...

GUI_DOWNLOAD instead of that WS_DOWNLOAD

Best would be to go OO

CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_DOWNLOAD

thanks for the replies but I get the same result for both of these, I'm afraid, so still have a blank line at the end of the file.

Can u paste your code ?

check desactivating WRITE_LF in GUI_DOWNLOAD

But you will lose the normal line breaks, you will need to concatenate the line break characters were you want a new line to beggin

funnily enough, I've just found OSS Note 787367, which describes the problem and informs us of a fix .....to the REGISTRY !

...but it doesn't work !

Hi,

Try this..

To the GUI_DOWNLOAD Fm pass WRITE_LF_AFTER_LAST_LINE = ' '.

Thanks
