Reading file from the presentation server in the background

Hi,
I am trying to read a .csv file from the presentation server into an internal table in the background. what should I do for it? In the foreground it works fine.
I have declared a selection parameter 'p_file' that has the path of the file. It wokrs fine in the foreground and how to set it up in the background?
Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks in advance,
VG

hii
did you achieved the required functionality , i,e, accessing presentation server file i nbackground .
I too got the same requirement, can you explain the process.
There is no way you can do it... The best method is to put the file on Appln server and then call it in the background mode.

"Bad data format" when reading txt file from the presentation server

Hello,
I have a piece of code which reads a txt file from the presentation server to an internal table like below:
DATA : lv_filename type string.
lv_filename = 'C:\abap\Test.txt'. "I created a folder called abap under C:\
CALL method CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_UPLOAD
EXPORTING
   FILENAME              = lv_filename
CHANGING
   DATA_TAB            = lt_tsd. " lt_tab has the exact same fields as the Test.txt's. Test.txt has only one line, tab delimited.
When running this code, exception BAD_DATA_FORMAT is issued.
Is it because of the file encoding or delimiter or other reason?
Thanks,
Yang

Hello,
If its tab delimited then use the has_field_seperator parameter and check
DATA : lv_filename type string.
lv_filename = 'C:\abap\Test.txt'. "I created a folder called abap under C:\
CALL method CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_UPLOAD
EXPORTING
   FILENAME                = lv_filename
   FILETYPE                 = 'ASC'
   HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR          = u2018Xu2019

   DATA_TAB            = lt_tsd.

How to refresh a local file in the Reporting Studio?

Hello,
I need to refresh a few local files in the Reporting Studio via script, but obviously command
ActiveDocument.Sections["Sectionname"].Process()
does not work, since it's not a query. What else could I use?
Many thanks for any answer.

I am confused...How is the solution not exactly what I look for ?
You asked how to refresh imported data files via script.
You correctly identified that the Imported file is not a Query.
However if you look at the Object model closely you will notice properties that if you can think outside the box will allow you to treat the imported file like a query section.
ActiveDocument.Sections["data.csv"].ProcessSequenceNum
ActiveDocument.Sections["data.csv"].IncludeInProcessAllBy strategically setting unwanted sections not to process via
ActiveDocument.Sections["Sectionname"].IncludeInProcessAll = falseand setting targeted section(s)...imported file(s) to process via
ActiveDocument.Sections["Sectionname"].IncludeInProcessAll = trueThen
ActiveDocument.ProcessAll()Your section(s) will refresh.
If this is not a satisfactory solution then move the data files to a database or create a DSN entry and OCE to those files instead of importing them.

How do I upload only a few lines of a file from the presentation server?

Hi there guys,
I'd like to upload the contents of a file on my HD (presentation server) to an internal table. I know this can be achieved by using the GUI_UPLOAD function module. But what if I only want to upload a part of the file, not the whole thing? Like the first 100 bytes or 10 lines or something like that. Some files are just way too big to upload them as a whole. I tried using the OPEN DATASET statement, but that seems to work only for files on the application server. If I try to open 'C: emp est.txt' (for example) with OPEN DATASET, I get an error. Do I have to put the filename differently or am I totally wrong with OPEN DATASET? I'm kinda stuck here and I'd appreciate your help.
Cheers,
Björn.

Hi Shashi,
thanks for your reply. If I understand you correctly, this means I will have to wait for GUI_UPLOAD to upload the whole file and afterwards filter into another table. I don't want to upload the whole thing because it's that big, I'd like to only upload a portion of it in the first place. Can this be done?
Cheers,
Björn.

How to delete an individual file from the'Recents' list on an Android tablet? Not the original file in the documents library.

I have a samsung note 8 tablet. I used to be able to delete files from the recents list, but don't know how to do it in the newest version.

I don't think you can remove just one file from this list.

How to delete a text file in the HP cloud

I had a text file that was created through a text (notpad type app ) on my kindle fire. I sent it to my HP printer using the Eprint app which worked great. I deleted the file from the notepad app but it still shows up in my HP cloud. How do I go about deleting it from my Eprint files ??

Hi there, can you clarify what you mean by "How do I go about deleting it from my Eprint files ??"
If its the notification message from within the ePrint app itself, then it is only a notification and a copy of the file does not get stored in the app.
Best.

How to synchronize a local file with the remote copy.

I have a local file (file.txt) inside the directory of my java application and also a copy in a remote machine. Every time I start the application I want to check if the remote copy has been updated and if yes, synchronize the local copy. If you have done this before, please let me know. Thank you very much!

you could make a URL connection to that file, check it's lastModified date, and download if you need to update

How to upload a current file to the remote server in Dreamweaver?

I am trying to transfer an html file from FrontPage to the server via Dreamweaver, but it absolutely refuses to upload. Help!

Nobody can know anything. You are not providing any system information, what version of DW you use, what the remote server actually is. and since this is a DW question, ask in their forum with the proper information included.

Help with how to read and write files to the applets server

I am writing a form that requires some data to be written serverside(not on the host machine) and I also need to be able to read from those same files.
Can anyone provide any help?
I looked into signing but it seems, to me, that signing is for when you are going to be modifying files on the host...

brianb7590 wrote:
Would I use that to refer to the file like I would with a regular application?Nope. It's pretty complicated. You've got to set something up on the server to accept requests, get all the data and then save files somewhere and on the client side you've got to make the connection and send the data.

Upload to file in the presentation server

Hi Guyz,
I got a report, which would download output into a .txt file using function module "download", but one field is not getting downloaded into that.
how to check that? plz let me know..
thanks a lot..
venu.

I guess its the last field in your structure you didn´t get. Right ? Then maybe you exceeded a hardcoded length of about 1000 or 1200 bytes in the FM.
Hope that helps.

How do I stop Dreamweaver from updating the Test server copy of a file when I open the local file?

The subject says it all. Every time I open a file, Dreamweaver connects to the testing server and uploads the local file to the test server.
I want to stop this behaviour. It's annoying!

My testing server is IIS running on my local machine.
The "local" copy of the file is actually on a remote share. I have the test server copy open in Notepad++. The two files are identical save for on extra line in the copy on the testing server. When I open the "local" copy in Dreamweaver, it shows me that some file activity is being done, and then Notepad++ tells me the file has changed and do I want to reload it. If I do, that extra line vanishes.
When I check the file activity log, it shows that the file activity is complete.
I haven't mentioned the production server because it doesn't seem to be affected, but we do have one.
