Writing file on to the application server

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am writing a file onto the application server with Heading (Header).

Header is about 1100 lines. File has been written successfully on to the application server but Header got truncted and written.

Is there any restriction on length of one row while writing the file on to the application server?

Thanks and Regards,

This is a problem related to the display of the file in AL11. There is a display restriction of about 255 characters. But the whole file will be stored in the application server. To confirm this use the transaction CG3Y and download the file to the presentation server. You will find the total length filled

What makes you think it's truncated? Are you viewing with a tool that has a maximum number of columns that it will display? Chances are it's how you're viewing, not the actual number of columns that got written to the file.

I tried to download the file using CG3Y still the header of the file is getting truncated.

I am writing .csv file to application server.

Well can you show us the declaration of the variable or internal table and the transfer statement you have used to create the file in appilcation server?

I have declared the variable as STRING. Then transferred it to application server.

Solved.

We need to download using CG3Y in BINARY format.
