FM to select the file path for download into application server

Hello,
I need a FM to select the file path for download into application server. It is a F4 help .
Its functionality should be simmilar to the one used for presentation server i.e. as fol
CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_save_dialog

Hello,
What about F4_DXFILENAME_TOPRECURSION? You can check other FMs of the group DX_FILE.
BR,
Suhas
PS: I think these FMs are not released by SAP, so need to be cautious while using these

Right-click the track in the library, and choose Show in Windows Explorer.
If you were hoping to get the file path displayed in a column, as is possible in Windows Media Player, note that iTunes does not have that ability.

Want to know the file path for application server in upload program

Iam doing upload program(i,e)uploading from application server,iam getting run time error while executing the following piece of code
"OPEN DATASET '/usr/sap/SPE/DVEBMGS00/work/ZPSPAR35_PERS_UP.txt' FOR OUTPUT
 IN TEXT MODE
 ENCODING DEFAULT."
if the above code is wrong can u mention the correct one.

hi,
Note: 699267
Symptom
a) When downloading to the application server a short dump occurs with the error 'UC_OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE'.
b) When downloading to a presentation server from an SAP system running on Unicode, only half the data is actually transferred to the downloaded file.
or
*)When downloading from an SAP system running on an application server with an EBCDIC-type code page, an incorrect code '0A' is written for the LINE FEED character

Pre-requisite
a) The output file is opened 'in text mode' which does not allow to write non-character-like structures to the file via the TRANSFER command.
b) The file is downloaded in the internal representation which uses two bytes per character in a Unicode system. The number of bytes to download is determined from the number of characters in the SAP system, however.
or
*)The code of the LINE FEED character is incorrectly programmed.

Solution:
You need to put some support packs attached with this note. For that you definitely need to ask YOUR FRIENDS WHO HAVE AN S-USER id at your WORK PLACE.
Note: 879598
Reason and Prerequisites
The file is downloaded in the internal representation which uses two bytes per character in a Unicode system. The number of bytes to download is determined from the number of characters in the SAP system. Hence when the download happens the data has to be converted to the required format.
Solution
Apply the corresponding support package or manually implement the changes described in the correction instructions.
Hope this helps.
Regards
ak.

Changing the File path for SQL Loader Recognition

Can you specify a new file path for album artwork in iTunes?

I want to store my music and the iTunes program on a drive other than my C Drive. I moved Windows' "My Music" folder from the "My Documents" along with the iTunes program and all my music to the new drive. I've changed the file path for the iTunes music folder location, but when I update my library iTunes creates the "My Music" folder in "My Documents" and downloads the album artwork there. How can I change this so iTunes will save the album artwork in the same place it saves the music? Is this possible?

Hi,
The column's style classes will be added on the <td> elements, not the header sadly. So for your use case you'll have to place the class on the table itself then use the selector
af|table.MyStyleClass af|column.formHeader::header-text{}Sadly this will affect all columns, not just one so I don't know if it's going to fir your need.

Search c:\ drive and return file path for winword.exe and save as variable

Hi all, here is what I'm trying to do;
1. Search C:\ drive for winword.exe
2. take the file path and save it as a variable.
3. Then based on the path value, use the switch statement to run "some command"
Essentially I'm trying to find what the file path for winword.exe is, then run a command to modify the registry. I already have the script that will modify the registry like I want but the problem it, the path is hard coded in the script, I want to
now look for all versions of word and set the right file path so I can make the right registry changes.

This should get you started:

Concatenate the field SY-SYSID, SY-UNAME and SY-DATUM for the file path

To select a file path?

Hi all!
Currently I want to allow user to select the file path using those file dialog like JFileChooser/FileDialog... So that there's an input field that accepts a file name... Then another text field which will display the path that the user chose... I need to do that separately to write a .wav file... How do I do it?
I tried using JFileChooser and set this... (.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);) It only shows the directories, yes... But if I open a directory... without anymore directories in it... When I click on the "OK" button... It does not allow me to go on...

Changing File path for different TIFF files in a For loop

Hi dear users:
I am using "IMAQ write TIFF File.vi" that basically writes a TIFF file to a specified file path. However, I would like to CHANGE the file path for each TIFF file i save in a for loop. The reason for this is that the File path has to include the file name and I do not want to write over the same file name all the time in a for loop. What I would like to have are sequential TIFF images. So if the file name would be "Image", I would like the result to be Image0, Image1, Image2 and so forth when I run my For loop. Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks

Use the "Format Into String" and the "Build Path" functions:

How to change the excel file name which is in Application server...

hi friends,
my requirement is getting failed, when i'm trying to change the file name which is in Application server using the FM: SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE.
when i execute above FM, i can see all my required details in SM69 like:
COMMAND NAME: ZSPOOL_TEST1
OS: Windows NT
TYPE: Customer
OS COMMAND: cmd rename Y:\OBRZ.PDF OBRZ38582.PDF
once the above FM is executed, i'm getting SY-SUBRC = 2 (exception: COMMAND_NOT_FOUND).
so, can any one guide me how to resolve this issue or is there any other way to rename the file which is in AS?
thanks in advance...

Hi ,
First you can tranfer the AS server file to a new application server file.
Then you delete the original file .
To do that you can write code as follows --
DATA : w_file(8) TYPE c VALUE 'FILE_NAM', " your present AS file name
       w_new(8) TYPE c VALUE 'NEW_FILE',
       fs_itab(255) TYPE c,
       t_itab LIKE TABLE OF fs_itab.
OPEN DATASET w_file FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
DO.
READ DATASET w_file INTO fs_itab. " Reading value from the AS file to field string
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
    EXIT.
ELSE.
    APPEND fs_itab TO t_itab. " Populating internal table form the file value
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
OPEN DATASET w_new FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE. " creating a new file if that does not exist
LOOP AT t_itab INTO fs_itab.
TRANSFER fs_itab TO w_new. " Transfering to file
ENDLOOP.
CLOSE DATASET w_file..
DELETE DATASET w_file. " Dleting the old file
CLOSE DATASET w_new. " Closing the final file

Transfer file from UNIX to windows application server G:\ drive

Dear Expert,
Really need some help on this, very urgent !
The download program schedule in background to allow file store in unix.
Can we do a unix command in abap program to transfer the file from unix to windows application server G:\ drive.
The gateway for that application server is ukblmqg02.emea.astrazeneca.net .
Anyone have the sample source code ?
Thanks&regards
Nislina

Hi,
1.
There is a FM 'ARCHIVFILE_SERVER_TO_CLIENT'.
If the requirement need not necessarily require a FM to transfer a file, then you can also use transaction 'CG3Y' to transfer a file
from application server to presentation server.
2.
Try to use FM DOCFILE_SERVER_TO_CLIENT. I am using it to download a file from SAP application server to desktop.
Source path should be application server file path along with file name i.e. /tmp/sample.xls.
Target path should be something like c:\file.xls.
Best regards,
Prashant
