Function like GUI_UPLOAD/GUI_DOWNLOAD for background

Is there a function or functions that work the same way as GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD but can be run both in the foreground and background?

GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD can only work in the foreground.  The reason for this is that they use some code which reside on the frontend PC.  A background process knows nothing of the PC connected thru SAPgui. In order to "download" data to files, you must write the files to the application layer using OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER DATASET, CLOSE DATASET.

  • How to use an external start button for 6024E w/ sc-2345, I would like it to function like a start button in LabView but I don't know how to connect the external button to the sc-2345's connector block

    I am confused as to how to connect my external start botton. I would like it to function like a start button on a front panel of a VI. I would like to use the +5V on pin 14 but I really don't know where to go from here. Any guidence for a novice would be most appreciated.

    phod,
    This is the LabVIEW Real-Time forum, so I suggest that in the future that you post this type of question to the Multifunction DAQ forum.
    For the simplest solution you will have to connect your button to a digital line of your board, consult the sc-2345 user manual for a diagram of where these lines are exposed. You will have to connect your start button in series with a line that is high, such as your 5V pin or another digital line. Then connect this to a digital line that will be your start trigger.
    Your program can poll the digital line that is connected to your button in a while loop and when it goes high, it lets the rest of the program execute. For the programming, I suggest you take a look at the shipping examples that come with LabVIEW. If yo
    u have LabVIEW 7.0 go to Help>>Find Examples. Open Hardware Input Output>>Traditional DAQ>>Digital Input and Output>>E Series for some examples of digital I/O programming with E-series boards.
    Hope that gets you started.

  • Is there a System Menu for special Functions, like WIPE CACHE?

    On my DX, there was a method of pressing and holding the Menu button & Power up button to get to special "Systems" functions like WIPE CACHE & FACTORY RESET. Does such a procedure exist for the Razr ?  I know about SAFE MODE and was able to see that work. (Although my finger hurt having to press the up/down Volume buttons for so ling. )

    While I have done this quite a few times (and this has made my phone a bit more responsive when it gets sluggish) you should be careful and watch what you are doing. If you select the wrong menu option you may end up having to contact Verizon for support.
    Wiping the cache partition
    Power the phone off
    Press and hold the volume down, volume up and power button until the recovery screen appears.
    Use the volume down button to select "Recovery" and then press the volume up to confirm the selection.
    The phone will do a little reboot thing, display the dual core logo thing and then an Android next to a triangle with a yellow exclamation point will appear. At this point press the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time.
    If you did everything correctly you are now at the Android System Recovery Screen. To clear the cache press the volume down button until you have selected "wipe cache partition". Press the power button to confirm the selection and it will wipe the cache partition.
    Once the cache is cleared press the volume up button to select "Reboot System Now" and press the power button to confirm the selection. If the "Reboot System Now" is already selected then just press the power button to confirm the selection and the phone will reboot.

  • I have photos in a DVD. In order to visualize them in iPhoto, must I necessarily import them? Can't I see the pictures from the media without importing? If not, is there any application with this functionality? I dont't like pre-visualization for photos.

    I have photos in a DVD. In order to visualize them in iPhoto, must I necessarily import them? Can't I see the pictures from the media without importing? If not, is there any application with this functionality? I need an app that allows me to navigate through the photos without selecting all of them. I realy dont't like pre-visualization for photos...

    In order to visualize them in iPhoto, must I necessarily import them?
    iPhoto is a Database. Before it can work with any data it must be imported to the database, so yes it is necessry to import them.
    Can't I see the pictures from the media without importing?
    See above.
    If not, is there any application with this functionality?
    Hundreds. Any image viewer will do the job. On your Mac the Finder has QuickLook and there is the Preview app as well. Online you can download any of these:

    No, not that I know of. If there were, it would be harder to use than

  • Searching for Calculation function like "@TONUMBER()" (Business Rules)

    Hello,
    I am searching for a calculation function like "@TO_NUMBER()" or a workaround.
    My current problem is as follows:
    @CONCATENATE("AAA_",(@SUBSTRING("BBB_2010",4) - 1) doesnt work --> SUBSTRING function returns "2010" (as STRING value, but then I cannot substract 1).
    Besides I am missing another function like @TO_STRING(), too, because @CONCATENATE("AAA_",2010) doesnt work - @CONCATENATE expects STRING and not NUMBER.
    Can anybody help?
    Thanks & kind regards

    thanks, but I would like to avoid using cdfs...

    Herewith my code:

    VAR varShiftValue = 1;
    LOOP(varLoopAmount)
    "Schadenquote BOZ" = "Schadenquote BOZ" + @SHIFT(&GCS_SchwaRue_Historie,varShiftValue,@ICHILDREN(&GCS_SchwaRue_Historie));

  • Control_flush_error with GUI_DOWNLOAD in Background mode

    Hi Friends
    When I have executed the FM: GUI_DOWNLOAD in Background mode,
    I am getting the error: Control_flush_error .
    Can anyone please let me know Is we can use the FM: GUI_DOWNLOAD & GUI_UPLOAD in Background mode?
    If not can anyone please provide me the relevant SAP(OSS) Note.
    Points are assured for useful answers.
    Thanks
    Regards,
    Sree

    Hi,
      No you can't do that, the GUI_DOWNLOAD method of the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES, and the function module GUI_DOWNLOAD are dependent on the gui. You can not use these in the background. You must download to the application server, using the dataset statements.
    OPEN DATASET
    TRANSFER
    CLOSE DATASET

  • To run GUI_DOWNLOAD in Background

    hi,
    i lokesh, i am trying to run GUI_DOWNLOAD in background, i am not able to get file in legacy. bcs the reason is in Background that is not unable to find File Type what we are given in file path, so is there any solution for this. if any body knows pls let me know.

    While executing programs in background, file handling will be done with application server.
    Hence use, OPEN DATASET for handling the same.
    Eg:
      data: l_file like rlgrap-filename value '/sap/usr/test.dat'.
      open dataset l_file for output in text mode encoding default.
      if sy-subrc ne 0.
         " Error Mesg Unable to open file
      else.
         loop at itab.
           transfer itab to l_file.
         endloop.
         close dataset l_file.
      endif.
      Hope this helps you.

    at new <location>
    write location
    endif .
    write transfer, structute date size
    for excel download use gui_download function.
