Hi,

I didnt find any,

I think you can create one for your need from SE11

Hello,

You have to code for this in the PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST block.

Inside this block you have to call the static method: CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_OPEN_DIALOG.

Hope i am clear.

Though in the Code a dialog will open to select for directory , you need to define your logic or user can input the directory .

REPORT abc.

PARAMETERS  check AS CHECKBOX .
types :
begin of ty_text,

text(100) type c,
  end of ty_text.
  
  data : l_folder type string,
         l_count type i,
         l_file_table type standard table of ty_text.



CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>DIRECTORY_BROWSE

  CHANGING
    SELECTED_FOLDER      = l_folder.



CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>DIRECTORY_LIST_FILES
  EXPORTING
    DIRECTORY                   = l_folder
  CHANGING
    FILE_TABLE                  = l_file_table
    COUNT                       = l_count.

I assumed you are aware of CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>file_open_dialog. I thought you want a list of all files and not usual file open dialog, and want to display that list like any other F4. )

Hi,

I doubt for webdynpro you could be able to use gui frontend services....

Anyways you can give it a try....

otherwise there are some other classes for the same explicitly for webdynpro's

Hi ,

Try this way...

PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
FIELD <DYNPRO-FIELDNAME>  MODULE F4_filename.

MODULE F4_filename INPUT.

* Drop down to retrieve File Path
  DATA: w_lcnt      TYPE i,
        t_lfilename TYPE filetable,
        w_lfilename LIKE LINE OF t_lfilename.

  CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_open_dialog
    EXPORTING
      window_title            = 'Find File Path'
    CHANGING
      file_table              = t_lfilename
      rc                      = w_lcnt
    EXCEPTIONS
      file_open_dialog_failed = 1
      cntl_error              = 2
      error_no_gui            = 3
      not_supported_by_gui    = 4
      OTHERS                  = 5.
  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
  ENDIF.

  READ TABLE t_lfilename INTO w_lfilename INDEX 1.
  IF sy-subrc NE 0.
    CLEAR w_lfilename.
  ENDIF.
  <DYNPRO-FIELDNAME> = w_lfilename-filename.


ENDMODULE.

Hi Javier, <li>Try this way.

  REPORT ztest_program.
  DATA: wa_pfile TYPE file_table.
  DATA: it_pfiles TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF file_table,
       count   TYPE i,
       dir     TYPE string VALUE 'C:\temp\'.
  CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_list_files
    EXPORTING
      directory                   = dir
      files_only                  = 'X'
    CHANGING
      file_table                  = it_pfiles
      count                       = count
    EXCEPTIONS
      cntl_error                  = 1
      directory_list_files_failed = 2
      wrong_parameter             = 3
      error_no_gui                = 4
      not_supported_by_gui        = 5
      OTHERS                      = 6.
  LOOP AT it_pfiles INTO wa_pfile.
    WRITE wa_pfile.
  ENDLOOP.

Thanks Venkat.O

All this solutions are right for reports, but i need the code for a dynpro. I suppose that must be inserted in the PBO or PAI sections.

Thanks.
