Doubt on gui_upload

Hi
I am working with r/3 version 4.6 B . I ma using gui_upload to read the data froma text file from desktop. the text file contains tow columns of data separated by tab space. when i pass this to the gui_upload the two columns data is going into first column of the internal table. the code is shown below
DATA : BEGIN OF itab_bdc OCCURS 0,
konob LIKE table-konob,
matnr LIKE table-matnr,
END OF itab_bdc
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
EXPORTING
filename = p_file1
filetype = 'ASC'
has_field_separator = 'X'
HEADER_LENGTH = 0
read_by_line = 'X'
DAT_MODE = ' '
CODEPAGE = ' '
IGNORE_CERR = ABAP_TRUE
REPLACEMENT = '#'
CHECK_BOM = ' '
VIRUS_SCAN_PROFILE =
NO_AUTH_CHECK = ' '
IMPORTING
FILELENGTH =
HEADER =
TABLES
data_tab = itab_bdc
EXCEPTIONS
FILE_OPEN_ERROR = 1
FILE_READ_ERROR = 2
NO_BATCH = 3
GUI_REFUSE_FILETRANSFER = 4
when i see the internal table itab_bdc the field konob contains both the columns data of the text file. It is not splitting the konob and matnr data into two different columns. what shd i do ??
thanks

  • Doubt in GUI_UPLOAD function

    Hi friends,
    CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD '
    EXPORTING
    FILENAME = FILE
    FILETYPE = 'ASC'
    *HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'
    TABLES
    DATA_TAB = ITAB.
    In the GUI_UPLOAD function what the filetype should be and has_field_separator should be given what value? What does it mean.How should i prepare the file for example for VA01 transaction if i have a file like this it is not working. What is the problem. I am new to BDC so i need your help on this.
    Thanks in Advance.

    try the following.
    DATA: begin of ITAB occurs 0,
          field1 type char10,
          field2 type char10,
          end of itab.
    data: filename type string value 'C:\TMP.TXT'.

    How can do this?
    Regards
    Juan

    Hey
    From my point of view, how can the systmem know what you are uploading is not correct?, all files have text, either if they are bitmaps, excel or whatever, so th only way, is to show to the user what they just uploaded and ask him if the information is correct.

  • Gui_upload and  ws_upload

    hi friends,
    i have a small doubt i just want to know the difference betweeen
    GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD which one i have to use.
    which function module is useful and  most preferred.
    regards
    srinivas

    WS_UPLOAD and WS_DOWNLOAD, the function modules used until now are not part of the standard set of ABAP commands. They are used to display the file interface on the presentation server. WS_UPLOAD and WS_DOWNLOAD are not compatible with USs and have been replaced by GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD.
    The new function modules, GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD, have an interface that also allows you to write Unicode format to the local hard drive. For a description of these interfaces, refer to the documentation for each function module, available under SAP Easy Access " Development " Function Builder " Goto " Documentation.

  • Diff between GUI_UPLOAD and CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES= GUI_UPLOAD

    i want to upload some records from the flat file to internal table. when i use GUI_UPLOAD function module in tables parameter i have given the work area. but when i use CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES-=>FILE_OPEN_DIALOG and then CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_UPLOAD i have given the internal table body in the changing parameters. my doubt is we have used GUI_UPLOAD in both occassions but when we use GUI_UPLOAD alone we are giving the internal table workarea but when we use it along with class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES we are giving the internal table body. whats is the reason or logic behind this?.

    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.

    ELSE.

  • Does 'GUI_UPLOAD' support 'DAT' filetype..?

    Hi All,
    I am working on an Upload program. In that they have used the file type as 'DAT'.
    My doubt is whether <b>'GUI_UPLOAD'</b> supports <b>'DAT'</b> filetype or not.
    Bacause, while uploading the tool, I am getting '<b>Invalid file type error</b>'.
    can anyone let me know the reason this issue.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Paddu.

    <b>GUI_UPLOAD does support "ASC", "BIN" & "DAT" Filetypes.</b>
    details regd filetypes:
    'BIN'
                A binary representation of the internal table is read from the file.
               No conversion or interpretation is carried out. Usually, this produces
                meaningful results only if the internal table consists of a single
               column of type 'X'.
    'DAT'
               The components of the internal table are filled from the file. If the
                table contains more than one column, the entries in the file must be
               separated by tabs. Conversion exits are not carried out.
               For the different data types, the following applies:
    I or N or P or F
                         The numbers must be formatted according to the decimal representation
                         defined in the user settings.
    D
                         The date must be formatted according to the date format defined in the
                         user settings.
    T
                         The time must have format hh:mm:ss.
    'ASC'.
               The components of the internal table are filled from the file. Only data
               types of fixed length are allowed. The data must be contained on the
               file in its entire length.
    refer from the documentation of gui_upload from tcode se37.

  • Doubts about some popular function modules?

    Hi all,
    I have doubts about these function modules (see in parenthesis)
    ws_filename_get (to get the file name at ...?)
    ws_query (to get file size and environment variables from the presentation server to the ...?)
    upload and download (what are the new function modules used in place of these (I know they are obsolete now)
    what is the Object oriented equivalents of these functions?
    Thanks.
    Charles.
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    <i>(1)What is the use of ws_filename_get? Please be specific in your answer, about where the file resides: application server, presentation server or the ABAP program.</i>
    It is simply providing an interface for the user to choose a filename which resides on the frontend PC(presentation server). As suggested already, this has been replaced with FILE_OPEN_DIALOG method of the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.
    <i>2)What is the use of ws_query? Please be specific in your answer, about where the file resides: application server, presentation server or the ABAP program.</i>
    Again, already answered,  this has been replace by multiple more specific methods of the same class mentioned above.
    <i>How can GUI_UPLOAD be a substitute of Upload? It is a substitute of WS_UPLOAD as upload is used to transfer data from presentation server to the ABAP program, whereas the other two are used to get it from presentation server to the application server.</i>
    They all transafer data from the presentation to your application.  They are all interchangable(in a sense), but you should be using the GUI_UPLOAD method of the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.

  • Difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD

    Hi,
    Please make me clear about the difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD. In which cases we need to use these modules...??
    Thanks,
    Satish

    I would suggest to always use the GUI_UPLOAD.  I say this because this is the function module which is used in the GUI_UPLOAD method of the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.   Really, you should probably use the class/method instead of the function module.

      filename = p_file.

    Hi,
      Connection poolins size means how many number of connection you want to make open to send data to ECC, We can define maximum number of connection in Receiver RFC Adapter,Go to additional parameters section and define Max Number of connection give the number there,thats it.Internally it works as Connection poolin mechanism.
