IMPORTDAY TYPE STRING,

CONVERTFILENAME LIKE ZMW0001-CONVERTFILENAME,

TRANSNO LIKE ZMW0001-TRANSNO,

EXETIMING LIKE ZMW0001-EXETIMING,

PRETRKORRNUM LIKE ZMW0001-PRETRKORRNUM,

MEMO LIKE ZMW0001-MEMO,

END OF ITAB.

    You can not directly upload the file into your internal table. My suggestion is to upload into a flat structured internal table. Then loop at that internal table and parse out the string into your fields of the other internal table. You are getting that error message because you must define you internal table to be compatiable with the DATA_TAB parameter of the method.

      Why not?

      Here is a sample.

      report zrich_0004.

      types: begin of tdata_tab,

      rec(500) type c,

      end of tdata_tab.

      data: data_tab type table of tdata_tab.

      data: filename type string.

      parameters: p_file type localfile default

      'C:\test.txt'.

      at selection-screen on value-request for p_file.

      call function 'KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4'

      exporting

      static = 'X'

      changing

      file_name = p_file.

      start-of-selection.

      filename = p_file.

      call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload

      exporting

      filename = filename

      changing

      data_tab = data_tab

      exceptions

      file_open_error = 1

      file_read_error = 2

      no_batch = 3

      gui_refuse_filetransfer = 4

      invalid_type = 5

      no_authority = 6

      unknown_error = 7

      bad_data_format = 8

      header_not_allowed = 9

      separator_not_allowed = 10

      header_too_long = 11

      unknown_dp_error = 12

      access_denied = 13

      dp_out_of_memory = 14

      disk_full = 15

      dp_timeout = 16

      others = 17.

      check sy-subrc = 0.

    Does the file have to be csv, because if you convert it to tab delimeted I belive your original code will work. see http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/file/file_uptabpc.htm

      field6(10) type c,

      field7(10) type c,

      field8(100) type c,

      end of new_itab.

      data: data_tab type table of flat_itab.

      data: fname type string.

      fname = 'C:\sun\rs3text.csv'.

      call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload

      exporting

      filename = fname

      changing

      data_tab = data_tab

      exceptions

      dp_timeout = 16

      others = 17.

      write sy-subrc.

      loop at data_tab.

      split data_itab at ',' into new_itab-field1

      new_itab-field2

      new_itab-field3

      new_itab-field4

      new_itab-field5

      new_itab-field6

      new_itab-field7

      new_itab-field8.

      append new_itab.

      endloop.

      actually my file is CSV tab delimited file..how to proceed. when i compile this i get compile error saying

      "data_tab contains no header." INTO WA.....

      why
