Download internal table to presentation server in UTF-8 format

Hello everyone.
We are trying to use function module GUI_DOWNLOAD to download data from internal table to a text file (filetype ASCII). The defualt encoding for the text file is ANSI but we need to download it with the encoding UTF-8.
We have already used codepage 4110 but that did not solve the problem.
We are using SAP ECC 5.0 system.
Can anyone please provide us with a solution? We need to solve this as early as possible.

Hi Saurav.
Try this
1.Go to SAP GUI Logon
2. Change your icon logon on Tabstrib "Code Page" at "Upload/Download" to encod whatever language
do you want.
Hope it helps.
Sayan.

Downloading an internal table to presentation server from WebUI

Hi All,
We have a requirement to download an internal table as a CSV file from CRM 7.0 WebUI to the presentation server. The file path is fixed, so the user need not choose the download location. The data to be downloaded is not part of any view on the WebUI and is being collected through code from several context nodes.
We have looked at CL_BSP_UTILITY, which is not solving our purpose, as the prepared data stream gets over written by CRM 7.0 framework during execution.
Any suggestions on how we can achieve the functionality?
Regards,
Mugdha

Hi,
If you need to provide download window via the browser, check out this wiki - [http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/pointstab/viewpageversion.action?pageId=187336093&version=6] . If you want to directly write to the presentation server, you have th efollowing ways. If you submit a report in background, you have the option of using CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES. Otherwise you can check out using a combination of javascript and activex objects ( [http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=136906] ).

p_tabnam(20) type c,
p_flname like rlgrap-filename.
But the problem is in funtion module "GUI_DOWNLOAD" i passed the value of p_flname parameter to filename and p_tabnam to data_tab.But it gives syntax error i.e. p_tabname is not an internal table data_tab should be the structure of internal table.How can i solve this problem can anybody help me.Give me any solution for this problem.

Bujji.

Hi,
See this code.
parameters: p_tabnam(20),
p_flname like rlgrap-filename.
field-symbols <FS> type standard table.
data: filename type <b>string</b>.
start-of-selection.
ASSIGN <b>(p_tabnam)</b> TO <FS>.
filename = p_flname.
call function 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
       EXPORTING
            FILENAME = filename
       TABLES
            DATA_TAB = <FS>
       EXCEPTIONS
            other    = 9.

Download the file in Presentation server with TAB Delimited

Hi,
I have to download the data of the finla internal table in presentation servr.
The oup put file should be TAB Delimited. I can do the same with using LOOP.
Is there any class or FM to do the same so that the out put file can be TAB Delimited.
Sandeep

HI,
you can use the fm
GUI_DOWNLOAD
in that if you see the
WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR - the import parameter, you can use this
so that the fille will be downloaded with tab delimited.

How to download internal table data to .xlsx file ?

Hello All,
I am using SAP ECC 6.0. I need to download internal table data to .xlsx file.
I tried GUI_DOWNLOAD, all the data are getting transferred to the .xlsx file, but while opening I am getting the below error.
Excel cannot open the file "download.xlsx" because file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file.
Though Microsoft office 2007 is installed in my system.

Download internal table to excel with header

Hi All,
I have a requirement to download internal table contents to excel with field headings. I tried searching in forums before posting but didn't got much help.
I have used GUI_DOWNLOAD, WS_DOWNLOAD and EXCEL_OLE_STANDARD_DAT.
But unable to download the header in excel..along with data...
EXCEL_OLE_STANDARD_DAT is getting field header in excel but not downloading automatically , need to save manually which is not the requirement.
The data is huge with around 151 columns....I got 2 internal tables.
One for the data and the other with field names.
Many Thanks,
Ravi K

Hi Ravi,
You need to have 2 different internal tables for achieving the needful. One internal table would be having your data and another would store your table field names i.e., declare a structure of length 100 characters,
TYPES : BEGIN OF GTY_FIELDNAMES,
                TITLE(100),
              END   OF GTY_FIELDNAMES.
DATA: GIT_FIELDNAMES TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF GTY_FIELDNAMES,
            GWA_FIELDNAMES TYPE GTY_FIELDNAMES.
DATA : GD_FILENAME TYPE STRING,
            GD_PATH     TYPE STRING,
            GD_FULLPATH TYPE STRING,
            GD_RESULT   TYPE I.
Now have a subroutine where by you append your headings into the internal table i.e.,GIT_FIELDNAMES
   CLEAR GWA_FIELDNAMES.
   GWA_FIELDNAMES-TITLE = 'Material Number'.
   APPEND GWA_FIELDNAMES TO GIT_FIELDNAMES.
   CLEAR GWA_FIELDNAMES.
   GWA_FIELDNAMES-TITLE = 'Material Description'.
   APPEND GWA_FIELDNAMES TO GIT_FIELDNAMES.
Once you are done with it you can call up the save dialog
* Display save dialog window
   CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_SAVE_DIALOG
     EXPORTING
       WINDOW_TITLE           = 'Save File As...'
       DEFAULT_EXTENSION = 'XLS'
       DEFAULT_FILE_NAME = 'SalesPlan'
       INITIAL_DIRECTORY      = 'C:\'
     CHANGING
       FILENAME                      = GD_FILENAME
       PATH                               = GD_PATH
       FULLPATH                      = GD_FULLPATH
       USER_ACTION               = GD_RESULT.
* Check user did not cancel request
   CHECK GD_RESULT EQ '0'.
   CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
     EXPORTING
       FILENAME              = GD_FULLPATH
       FILETYPE                = 'ASC'
*     APPEND                = 'X'
       WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'
*     CONFIRM_OVERWRITE     = 'X'
     TABLES
       DATA_TAB                 = GIT_FINAL                  " Internal table having data
       FIELDNAMES            = GIT_FIELDNAMES     " Internal table having headings
     EXCEPTIONS
       FILE_OPEN_ERROR       = 1                         "#EC ARGCHECKED
       FILE_WRITE_ERROR      = 2
       OTHERS                           = 3.

Export internal table to application server

hello all!
i would like to export the contents of an internal table to the appliation server. i tried via OPEN DATASET, but my itab contains not only character type data.
i do not want to copy all content into a parallel structure with all character type colums
do you know a way to export an internal table on application server, in a way that it is readable by ms excel?
thanks!

Hi Matthias, i think that the only solution is using a parallel structure with all character type colums. Also use 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_CSV_FORMAT' to convert the internal table to csv format in order to be readable by ms excel.

Download the file in presentation server while the program runs in backgrou

Hi,
Usually we will never download the file in presentation server while the job is scheduled in back ground.
But now i need to do that. I need to download the data in excel file and the same program is scheduling in background.
Can any one suggest how can we do this?
Thanks in Advance,
Ravi

Hi,
There is an alternative provided by SAP. The program RFCEXEC has to be installed locally on the PC.
In SAP R/3 we have to define a destination link to your local PC to the RFCEXEC program. And in the ABAP program we have to invoke the connection by calling the FM RFC_REMOTE_FILE.
I havent tried this before but a detailed documentation is available in this link.

Debugging ECC6: how to see the fields name when download internal table?

When we debug a reprot in ECC6 and save to a local file an internal table, the fields are not appearing only the data,
Is there a way to download also the table fields name?

From the new debugger switch to the classic debugger using menu path Debugger->Switch to Classic Debugger. Form the classic debugger you can download internal table data with column name(s).
