Error while assigning a background job to upload the data from the application server

Hi All,

I've used opendataset statement condition i.e.,

(OPEN DATASET lv_path FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT) and transfered the data from the excel sheet to the Application server (AL11)...

There the data has converted to txt format and stored in the directory (D:\usr\sap\VSD\SYS\src\File.xls) in the application server.

My requirement is to schedule a background job to upload the data from the excel file to the database system....

While I'm trying to execute the program by giving the directory filename it is giving the error "Excel file D:\usr\sap\VSD\SYS\src\File.xls cannot be processed"

Can anyone help me, how to achieve this functionality....
