Download list as Excel

Hello,
they made me recreate the ABAP-Reports as BSP pages and after some head aches I did it and the lists are displayed in the browser. Now they want me to offer the option of downloading the list as an Excel file.
I work with SUBMIT EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY and then
1) CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
2) CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_TO_ASCI'
3) CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
the problem ist LIST_TO_ASCI, because some how it cannot detect the printed list on the browser and returns the exception "list_index_invalid" or "CNTL_ERROR". It works perfect in ABAP but not in BSP.
Does some one of you have an idea on what to do or if there´s a better way to convert unreadable characters delivered by LIST_FROM_MEMORY as ASCII characters ??
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
your code works fine and I can open the Excel from my BSP, but I still have the main problem, that is, I´m not getting to read the displayed list. Reading the many postings in this forum, the following code should extract the texts:
neither
CALL METHOD runtime->server->response->get_data
RECEIVING
data = l_string.
nor
CALL METHOD runtime->server->response->get_cdata
RECEIVING
data = l_string.
seem to work with me.
"That'll open B.xls. This is rather the same as B.htm but with Excel save HTML and colouring. You might do an include of the common HTML."
You mean that B.XLS is a HTML page where I embed the Excel as object ??
Thanks

I'm trying to export a list to Excel and I'm getting this error: "unable to download owssvr.dll"

Hi,
Help, please.
I’m trying to export a list to Excel and I’m getting this error: "unable to download owssvr.dll"
Thanks in advanced.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you got the error "unable to download owssvr.dll" when exporting a list to Excel.
owssvr.dll is the module given by Microsoft to read the data from SharePoint Lists using remote procedure call.
You can find the OWSSVR.DLL in SharePoint 2010 Server Physical Path: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\ISAPI.
Please check whether it exists in SharePoint 2010 Server Physical Path.
Please check whether you export a list to Excel correctly.
Generally, the issue is caused by the brower. Please reset the IE to check whether it works.
In addition, you can repair the Office to check whether it works.

Authorization object to import mb51 detail list to excel

Dear all,
What is authorization object to import mb51 detail list to excel ?
Able to see report material document list,but export to local file is greyed out ?
Jeyakanthan

Hi,
you can export ALV using menu option List -> Export -> Local file. Icon with green arrow which is usually used for download functionality in ALV has a different meaning in MB51. I know it's confusing. It's used to get full MM documents from archive. It's active only if you set option Short Documents in the section Data Source.
Cheers

Hi.
I find that
List > Export > Spreadsheet
gives no subtotals, but
List > Export > Local File and then Spreadsheet
does give subtotals.
I find that
Views > Microsoft Excel
followed by
Save As
does give subtotals.

Problem when we dowload spool list into excel.

Hello Gurus,
I have developed an custom report, The output contains 15 columns. When i run the report in foreground the output will be displayed in correct format also when i download the report list into excel(List->Save/Send->File) then the records will be downloaded in proper format(Each record under respective column heading).
But when the report is scheduled in background the spool list(SP01) is displayed in the proper format. But when I download this into excel(SppolRequest->Forward->SaveToLocal) . The excel data will be in improper format and all record value are not under respective column heading.
Can anyone advice me.
Thanks and regards,
Vinod

Hi,
Use the FM 'EXCEL_OLE_STANDARD_DAT'.
In this FM populate the tables parameter 'fieldnames' to get each cloumn below the heading correctly.
