Fixing columns while downloading using GUI_DOWNLOAD!!

Hi,
I have declared an internal table which is downloaded using GUI_DOWNLOAD and after downloading the required outpout should appear in their own place for example:
MATNR MEINS PLANS
123 test1 test2
12 test3 test3
but whats actually happening ...
123test1test2
12test3test3
how to fix the columns so that field value appear in that location only and from the same postion for all the records once downloaded..
Regards
Gunjan

Hi Gunjan,
You can try this:
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
    FILENAME                      = v_filename
    FILETYPE                      = 'ASC'
    WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR         = ' '
For ASCII download, if you specify the field separator as spaces, then it will automatically separate fields with TABS.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Hi manish,
1. For the same purpose
   i have developed an INDEPENDENT SUBROUTINE/FORM
   in which we pass just two things :
    a) itab
    b) file name with full path
2. It then downloads the file
   (ALONG WITH THE FIELD NAMES AT THE TOP)
(We have to use GUI_DOWNLOAD two times,
   once for downloading data,
   and once for downloading the field names separated
    by tab)
3. Just copy paste in new program.
report abc.
data : itab like table of t001 with header line.
select * from t001 into table itab.
perform mydownload tables itab using 'D:\t001.txt'.
INDEPENDENT FORM
form mydownload tables ptab using filename.

DATA : components     LIKE     rstrucinfo OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA : allfields(300) TYPE c.

         allfields(300) type c,

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'.
ITEM-IT2 = '124'.
ITEM-IT3 = 'T'.
APPEND ITEM.
CLEAR ITEM.
ITEM-IT1 = 'SAI'.
ITEM-IT2 = '24'.
ITEM-IT3 = 'T'.
APPEND ITEM.
CLEAR ITEM.

Headings not downloaded using GUI_DOWNLOAD, used DBF as a file type

Hello,
             I have used the function module to download the data into an excel file using GUI_DOWNLOAD FM.
I have given the file type as 'DBF', because if I give DAT type then the data for the amount not downloading properly.
and preceeding zero's are not dowloaded properly. Hence used DBF.
But when I use DBF file type , the header texts are not downloaded properly.
CALL FUNCTION GUI_DOWNLOAD
    EXPORTING
      filename                       = lw_file
     filetype                        = DBF
   TABLES
      data_tab                      = t_output
    fieldnames                      = t_head
fill the header texts for all the fields
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_head,
               name(24),
END OF ty_head.
data: wa_head TYPE ty_head,
       t_output TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_output,
wa_head-name = text-t01.
condense wa_head-name.
APPEND wa_head TO t_head.
    CLEAR wa_head.
wa_head-name = text-t02.
APPEND wa_head TO t_head.
CLEAR wa_head.
wa_head-name = text-t03.
APPEND wa_head TO t_head.
CLEAR wa_head.
This is the code I have used...but the text is not displaying fully in the file.
If I use DAT, then data will be wrong in some cases.(like zeros.amount in decimals).
Thanks,
AV

HI,
I suggest prepare the data in the internal table t_output as per your requirement first so as to avoid the data anomaly & then you can happily used DAT.

ALV truncation while download using List--Save/send--File--Spread sheet

Experts,
In ALV output, I am trying to download using menu item
"List --> Save/send --> File --> Spread sheet" then in the popup appears
here if i GIVE the FILE NAME THEN,material number is getting truncated.
If I don't give any file name it is storing as ".xls" and not getting truncated.
How to correct this or avoid this truncation.
OR
If we can't do correction about truncation ...my function consultant is asking to
to disable "List --> Save/send --> File".
Thanks in advance.
Sam

Solved by my own....
We need to pass
i_fieldcat-no_zero = 'X'.
so that the zeros at the end won't get truncated.

Getting save as dialog while downloading using download servlet

Hi Folks,
I am developing a web based video download application.In this i intend to download the video file by calling a download servlet.
Though the application works ,that is it downloads the file, the video file is straight away being played by the media player.My objective is to save it in the client machine at the desired location of the hard disk and then play the same later at cient's convenience. This is not happenening with my application.
Pl suggest me as how to get the save as dialog box to save the video file at will.
The site is to be lauched in a weeks time.Pl help!!!
thanks and regards
sathiyam K G

Hi rupak,
Thanks for the tip.I actually did all the things u said.But the difference is that i rely on http download.
I mean i do not use the servlet output stream to download the video file.If i do so it takes about 20 mins for a 10 MB sample file,to be downloaded via a broad band T1 link.
So i just use href to depend on http by which the download speed is accelerated and my one clip of video of 100MB average size can be downloaded in about 15 min. duration.
If this is not the correct way of working for the video download will u pl suggest me any other way through servlet, i can download with the above specified speed.
i am clear if i use the servlet output stream the download process is deadly slow.
so pl suggest!!
thanks again

Is it possible to have a fixed column width and a URL link?

I am trying to achieve having a popup link on a column within a SQL report but also have the report column a certain width. I can have either or however not at the same time.
What I did was created a SQL report, edited a column and gave it a URL redirect (page in application) as normal.
For the fixed column width, I used:
<div style="width:250px; height:54px; overflow:hidden" title="#Comments#">#Comments#</div>On Column Formatting / HTML Expression
And for the popup URL, I used:
onclick="window.open(this.href,'_blank','resizable=0,scrollbars=0,width=650,height=300,menubar=0,location=0');return false;" title="Comments"On the Column Link / Link Attributes

Andy thank you for your reply, however I either am not completly understanding or there is a problem elsewhere.
I have changed to the code to fit the needs of the application as so:
!http://i41.tinypic.com/2m6mrh4.jpg!
App ID: 523
Page: 23
Item: P23_STATUS_COMMENT
Column to select: Comments
Whenever clicking on the link, the following error is given:
Expecting p_company or wwv_flow_company cookie to contain security group id of application owner.

Error while downloading output in excel format using FM Gui_download

Hello All,
<removed by moderator>
While downloading the necessary output of a Ztransaction in excel format the excel file only shows one 1 record whereas in the output there were 88 records.
When I am downloading it in other formats like Rich text etc. the data is getting downloaded correctly as per the output.
Now this problem is occuring in Production & Quality whereas in Development the excel file is downloading data correctly.
I have compared the code in the different clients as well as debugged it but the code is the same in each case.
There is no data corruption in the final internal table as well.
So what else can be done?....
The data needs to be downloaded as it is in the output in the excel format.
Kindly give me some suggestion and help me out in this regard.

Hi experts,
I'm uploading the Production Order data through excel and in the transaction level it's happening fine.
After running the BDC I'm fetching the Production Order Number(AUFNR) and it's Status from the respective tables and downloading the data along with the Production Order Number(AUFNR) and it's Status using GUI_DOWNLOAD. (Version is 4.6 C)
After downloading some of the Production Order Numbers(AUFNR) and it's Status are missing in the Excel Log sheet . But it's very much there in the SAP tables and also in the transaction screen level.

Hi,
I am not sure why it is not coming .
But try by uncomment the bin_filesize.
Because generally the size(bin_filesize) specification is for binary files .
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'

filename = v_name
filetype = 'ASC'
write_field_separator = 'X'

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..

Blank spaces while using GUI_DOWNLOAD for Chinese characters

Hi,

Error while downloading data Using RSCRM_BAPI

Hi Folks,
I am getting the below mentioned error message while downloading the data from BW report to csv file using RSCRM_BAPI.
Can anyone help on this error ?
Internal error in method CHECK_TABLE_NAME (RSCRMBW_EX_NAMESPACE_GET)

hi lakshmi:
I also tried to use this t-code. but this has lots of restrictions..and its not recommended to use this t-code for complex queries.There are OSS NOtes out there for restrictions for this t-code.
I got to know from other forums on SDN that there is other RSCRMBW_REPORT FM. which is better to use. but not able to use it... there is specific way for that FM. If you try that and if it works for you please let me also know.
Also, try to look at this forums:
