Create text file (ASCII), tab separated and load in sap (transaction al11)

hi..
i need to create a text file (ASCII), tab separated in sap which can be viewed in transaction AL11.
thank you.

Hi kailashl,
Do intend to create a tab delimited file through program. or is it that you wish to diretly place the file on the application server.
PS: if you wish to place the file which you have on the application server from presentation you use the tcode CG3Z, you need to give the source file path on the front end and target path on the application.
If you wish to write the file onto the app server using program that you can do using dataset. and for tab delimited u can use CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
PS: Award points ONLY if the solution was useful to you.

Im using the FM GUI_DOWNLOAD to create the file.i need have the 2nd file as txt file(seperated by space/tab delimited) and also i want the fields to have fixed length.For this format of the file,what parameters do I need to pass to the FM ?
BR,
SRM Tech.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
Also in the sel screen,Im entering the path where the o/p file needs to be downloadede.g. C:/Output_folder/Output.xls...Now if I need a text file,do I need to give the fielname as C:/Output_folder/Output.txt.?

Down load or create text file using bapi

hi friends,
My requirement is to create text file or down load text file in presentation server when the bapi runs in which the ip address is defined at the interface.
plz sujjest me,
points will be rewarded .
prasad.

Hi,
The FM 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' should use the network path like '
10.10.10.10\shared_file\PO.txt'. Pass this value to the file path parameter and execute the program.

Text created in Premiere showing other text files in the timeline and exports.

Hi,
I'm creating slates with text generated in Premiere. For each new slate I am duplicating a text layer, Option + Dragging the duplicate file over the text I'd like to replace, then opening the new text layer in the text editor and updating the information.
Things seem fine at first and then randomly text layers in the timeline will show text from other files in the timeline. If I open the text file up in the text editor I see the correct info but not in the timeline.
The only fix I have found is to delete render files, move the text layer around in the timeline, quit and re-open. But still, sometimes when I export, the export preview window will show the wrong text and when I export the file I create shows the wrong text as well.
It seems like Premiere is getting confused by multiple text files in the timeline and is pointing to the wrong cache files.
Thoughts would be a huge help!

Thanks for the tip Kevin. Anything I can do to avoid this in the future?
I've had this happen on a number of projects. My media and project files are on a SAN, cache and previews are local.
Thanks,

Hi ,
Use this abap code .this will create a file in AL11 that you can use .
data: d_msg_text(50),
      v_string(20000) type c,
      v_filename type rlgrap-filename,
******Create a file on app server
concatenate '<directory name present in AL11 case sensitive>' ' filename.CSV' into v_filename .
condense v_filename no-gaps .
open dataset v_filename for output in text mode
encoding default message d_msg_text.
if sy-subrc ne 0.
write: 'File cannot be opened. Reason:', d_msg_text.
exit.
endif.
****Header for file
concatenate 'information you want to write in file like header etc ' into v_string separated by '|'.
transfer v_string to v_filename.
*****Write data into file by looping an internal table
loop at <internal table > assigning <work area>.
concatenate      <work area>-field name1   <work area>-field name2    into v_string separated by '|' .
transfer v_string to v_filename.
endloop.
close dataset v_filename.
Hope this will solve your purpose.

Problem in creating text file from report file

Hello Everybody...
I have problem in creating text file.
I had set System Parameter as below
DESTYPE : File
MODE : Character
DESNAME : gayu.txt
And ruler setting
Units : Character Cells
Character Cell Size : Horiziontal = 7
Vertiacle =12
GridSpacing : 1
no of snap points per grid spacing : 1
but when i run report it will give error
"REP_1219 M_2 or R_2 has no size -- length or width zero"
so is there any solution of that
or another way to convert report into text file?....

Hi Folks,
Please don't go after that Error as its a very deceptive one. Please don't go for altering your design Or changing the size of items in your layout.
Similar errors I have come across in reports. I think its due to file transfer type. You might have transferred the file in Binary and your File Mode I am seeing it as CHAR.
This normally happens while making the Report Format as "Text". Either you change that format which I think is possible in your case as your basic requirement is making a report output of CHAR type.
Please check for this error in Metalink and proceed accordingly. I could fix similar errors when I changed Format type to PDF(from text).

How to upload a text file to a webpage and process it using a Java app?

Apologies if the question is off topic.
I would like a user to upload a text file to a webpage and have a pre-existing Java application I created process the text file and return the results to the user. The Java application is fairly memory intensive. It is expected that multiple clients will be uploading at the same time. What is the simplest or most efficient method to achieve this?
Thank you

This might help you to get started: http://www.roseindia.net/jsp/file_upload/Sinle_upload.xhtml.shtml
As done in this example, processing the uploaded file in the JSP itself may not be a good idea though. You're better off handling it in your controller servlet or action class.

Hi,
After upload modify the code like below. Also change the file name as some one suggested already. If u are still facing problems then check in debug mode what is happening after FM call.
CALL GUI_UPLOAD FM.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0
IF NOT itab[] IS INITIAL.
MODIFY ZABPSP_01 FROM TABLE itab.
WRITE : / ' UPLOAD SUCCESS ' .
ELSE.
WRITE 'No data in file'.
ENDIF.
ELSE.

ENDIF.

Create text file in Database Trigger

Hello,
How to create text file in the database trigger. I am working on Row level trigger which has select statement if statement fails I have to create text file and insert record in text file. I tried to use file1 TEXT_IO.FILE_TYPE package it does not works.
Thanks,
Atif

TEXT_IO is not available on the database. It is only available if you are doing client-side PL/SQL development in Oracle Forms. On the database side, you can use the UTL_FILE package.
Since writing to a file is not transactional, however, and because Oracle may have to call a trigger multiple times to ensure write consistency:
http://tkyte.blogspot.com/2005/09/part-iii-why-is-restart-important-to.html
http://tkyte.blogspot.com/2005/08/part-ii-seeing-restart.html
http://tkyte.blogspot.com/2005/08/something-different-part-i-of-iii.html
you aregenerally better off not writing to a file in a trigger. The better answer is generally to use Oracle Asynchronous Queues to send a message to another process that actually writes the file. That way, if the transaction rolls back, nothing gets written to the file.

How do I find out the exact path of each and every file that LabVIEW finds and loads into memory for a given top level vi?

How do I find out the exact path of each and every file that LabVIEW finds and loads into memory for a given top level vi? There is probably a trivial, easy way to get this info, but I have not yet found it! Thanks..

Or if you want to grab all the paths programatically, try the attached VI.
Open the top level that you want all the paths from and close all others, then open the
attached and run it. It will return an array of all the VIs that the VI
in question uses, including vi.lib VIs. You can filter these as well if
you like.

Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

Creating a file that has drag and drop feature

Hi,
I'm working on a memory experiment and I want to create a file with a drag and drop feature. I set an image as layer 1, and several images as layer 2. I would like to create a file where people can drag and drop on of the images from layer two onto a slot in layer one. Ideally I would like it to remain stable if the place an image in the slot (meaning if they try to place one of the images from layer 2 into layer 1, I want it to allign perfectly).
Help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Check if using the Smart Guides snapping is something that could be useful for this. If the size of the objects are exactly the same the snapping is relatively easily when trying to put one object on the place of another. If the sizes are not the same then the center point indicator should be used as a target which require a little bit more effort. However enabling the Smart Guides is not a file feature, the user has to turn it on/off in Illustrator affecting all open documents.
