We met a problem when use BAPI EXCEL_OLE_STANDAED_DAT to generate local Microsoft excel 2007 file.

When open the generated excel 2007 file, Error occurs: file format is not valid. We do not know how to solve this trouble

what kind of data are you going for so that you have to use this specific FM?

i mean try using other FMs if its simple data...

one more thing is check what data is being downloaded, keeping a breakpoint just before downloading.
