Need to avoid header When using GUI_DOWNLOAD with file type "DBF"

Hi ,
I am downloading internal table to excel on the desktop using GUI_DOWNLOAD with file type "DBF".
Internal table I use do not have any header.
But I do see the header in the downloaded file.
It displays 1 row as " F1 F2 F3..ETC" heading for each column.
Is there any variable we need to set to suppress header.
Thank you,
Kumar

Hello Dilip,
I tried using GUI_DOWNLOAD with FILE TYPE as "DBF", and i see the problem as mentioned. My question to you is:
1. Why do you need 'DBF' format?
2. Is it required to save the file as '.CSV'? Can you not try to save in '.XLS' file?
Plz revert back.

Problem with header download using GUI_DOWNLOAD

Hi folks,
Iam facing a particular problem while downloading an internal table to excel file using GUI_DOWNLOAD and file type as 'DBF'.
Once i download the file, iam getting an automatic header with contents as "F1, F2, F3,...." for all the columns. But, i want to put my own header there. Is there any way out ?
Thanks and Regards,
Vijay.

hi,
may be this code will be helpful to u
Just take one field in header(internal table) of type c. and push all the field headings into it.
and give that internal table to fieldnames it will resolve the problem.
DATA:BEGIN OF HEADER OCCURS 0,
      F1(30) TYPE C ,
     END OF HEADER.
DATA:BEGIN OF ITEM OCCURS 0,
       IT1(30) TYPE C,
       IT2(3) TYPE C,
       IT3(4) TYPE C,
     END OF ITEM.
   HEADER-F1 = 'NAME'.
   APPEND HEADER.
   CLEAR HEADER.
   HEADER-F1 = 'AGE'.
   APPEND HEADER.
   CLEAR HEADER.
   HEADER-F1 = 'STAT'.
   APPEND HEADER.
   CLEAR HEADER.
ITEM-IT1 = 'MANOHAR'.

Manipulating excel file while using GUI_DOWNLOAD

hi all,
while using GUI_UPLOAD i want to
1) fix the width of the column of excel file
2) define the font of the data in excel file
3) change background color of the cells in excel file.
please suggest as to how can this be done?

using GUI_DOWNLOAD you can't change the data in excel sheet...if you want to do the things you need to use OLE concpets for downloading of data to Excel sheet wherein you can do most of the options excel can handle..
Check within SDN as there are blogs for downloading data to Excel sheet using OLE concepts..

Export data in ANSI format using GUI_DOWNLOAD

Hi,
Please find below the issue description.
We have a program that exports txt file which inturn is uploaded in a 3rd party system.
Before upgrade, we were getting the txt file in ANSI format. (The program uses GUI_DOWNLOAD without any code page and file type is ASC)
After upgrading the system to ECC 6, the program was modified to consider the code page 4103. But the txt file is in Unicode Format. (file type used in GUI_DOWNLOAD is ASC). As the 3rd party system is accepts only ANSI format, we manually change the format in windows and then upload.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Senthil G.

use class CL_ABAP_CONV_OUT_CE
2) or use obn application server
open dataset file for output in legacy text mode code page p_code.
(for codepage look in tabele TCP00!)

Extracting a Report from SAP Spool into a Useful Excel 2010 Format

Hi All,
Extracting a Report from SAP Spool into a Useful Excel 2010 Format. I'm currently running the following report in SAP and would like the
ability to set this report up as a recurring report running weekly and
subsequently access this report in a useable Excel 2010 format without
much data manipulation. Can you please assist me. Below, I've tried to
provide an example of what I'm encountering. Thanks, beforehand for
your assistance.
Here goes:
Step one: Run 62 Report in SAP S_P99_41000062- Material List Price and
Inventory
Step 2. Select stored Variant "Weekly KPI", ok. Enter the enter the
desired company code and period I want thre report to run for and update
the currency, if necessary. Having input my desired criteria, I believe
I can either execute immediately, run in the background, preset to run
at date in the future. For this example let's just execute, immediately.
This is where the difference originates. Given, I run this report
immediately, I'm able to simply extract the result to Excel via the list
selection noted in the tool bar below. The result is a data friendly
excel 2007 report is automatically generated.
Export to Excel via list:
Select save and Excel 2007 opens automatically:
That said, the method outlined above works perfectly fine if you want
the report immediately. Now let go back and run the exact same report
with exceptoin of running it in the background and having to retrieve it
from the Spool (SP01) uisng my user ID. Given the report generated in
the background, I would now access the report via the spool and make
the following selections:
SP01 + execute to see my report
I would hit the sunglasses to see the actual report, then want to
extract this report to Excel by selecting the export option.
I would at this point select spreadsheet and be given an option to save
the spreadsheet to local file. However, upon trying to open the
spreadsheet I will receive an error messageindicating that the format is
different than that which the file I am currently trying to open it
with. I'm currently running Excel 2010 on my computer. The currency
format and other issues arrise with this extract. Please help.
Thanks,
Chowadary.

Update to Latest GUI.
Use List -> Export -> Spreadsheet to get the output to excel.
I remember in ALV max length allowed is 1023 characters and the max no of columns supported is 90. Issue occurs when row size of exported data gets more than 1023 character. (This includes if Long/Medium Header Text used ) If it exceed 1023 character the columns splits and moves to next row.
Check your fieldcatog for header lengths.

Hello Santosh,
Play with the below importing parameters in the function module "GUI_DOWNLOAD".
WK1_N_FORMAT - Format for value columns in files of the type WK1
WK1_N_SIZE - Column width for value columns in files of the type WK1
WK1_T_FORMAT - Format for text columns for files of the type WK1
WK1_T_SIZE - Column width for text columns for files of the type WK1.
It might help you I guess. Also read the documentation of those importing parameters by clicking on the long text green icon after the description in the IMPORTING parameters tab of the function module.
