Hi Raghu,
Execute this program.
REPORT  ZTEST_3318                              .
tables: usr01.
perform send_report_to_spool.
*&      Form  send_report_to_spool
      text
form send_report_to_spool.
  data: loc_dest like pri_params-pdest,
        wf_listname type char12,
        wf_listtext like PRI_PARAMS-PRTXT,
        wf_copies type i,
        wf_days type i,
        wf_PARAMS LIKE PRI_PARAMS,     " achieving file PRI_PARAMS.
        wf_valid type c.
  clear : wf_listname , loc_dest , wf_listtext .
  move: 'AP interface' to   wf_listname .
  move: 'AP interface' to   wf_listtext .
select single spld into usr01-spld from usr01 where bname eq sy-uname .
  if sy-subrc eq 0 .
    move: usr01-spld to loc_dest .
  endif .
  call function 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
    EXPORTING
      destination    = loc_dest
      copies         = 1
      list_name      = wf_listname
      list_text      = wf_listtext
      immediately    = ' '
      release        = ' '
      new_list_id    = 'X'
      expiration     = 1
      line_size      = 200
      line_count     = 65
      layout         = 'X_65_200'
      sap_cover_page = 'X'
      receiver       = 'SAP*'
      department     = ''
      no_dialog      = 'X'
    IMPORTING
      out_parameters = wf_params
      valid          = wf_valid.
  if wf_valid <> space.
    new-page print on parameters wf_params no dialog.
    perform write_summary .
    new-page print off.
  endif .
endform.                    "send_report_to_spool
*&      Form  write_summary
      text
-->  p1        text
<--  p2        text
FORM write_summary .
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
      matnr type matnr,
      end of itab.
select matnr
       from mara
       into table itab
       up to 10 rows.
loop at itab.
write: / itab-matnr.
endloop.
ENDFORM.                    " write_summary
This will create spool in SP01.What data you want to put in Spool write it in form write_summary.I have done coding for testing purpose
After that use that spool for your purpose.
