You be able to use the function "WS_DONLOAD" ?
parameters: p_fnam like  rlgrap-filename memory id fnam obligatory.
data: begin of t_registro occurs 0,
        registro(1000),
      end of t_registro.
      describe table t_registro lines sy-tfill.
      if sy-tfill gt 0.
        l_tam = strlen( p_fnam ).
        call function 'WS_DOWNLOAD'
             exporting
                  filename                = p_fnam
             tables
                  data_tab                = t_registro
             exceptions
                  file_open_error
                  file_write_error
                  invalid_filesize
                  invalid_type
                  no_batch
                  unknown_error
                  invalid_table_width
                  gui_refuse_filetransfer
                  customer_error.
        if sy-subrc <> 0.
          open dataset p_fnam for output in text mode.
          if sy-subrc = 0.
            loop at t_registro.
              transfer t_registro to p_fnam.
            endloop.
            close dataset p_fnam.
            write:/ 'Se genero el archivo:', p_fnam(l_tam).
          else.
            write:/ 'No se pudo generar el archivo:', p_fnam(l_tam).
          endif.
          close dataset p_fnam.
        else.
          write:/ 'Se genero el archivo:', p_fnam(l_tam).
        endif.
   endif.
I hope this works for you.
