How to download internal structure in Excel file ?

Question

Hi,
In a ABAP 4.7 program, we need to download internal table/structures in a excel file. Automatically (as manually with breakpoint and Excel export button),
The SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT doesn't work (empty file) certainly cause non STANDARD TABLE used.
There is various internal tables/structures, see one below
TYPES:
  BEGIN OF gty_rup,
    kunnr                   LIKE           bsid-kunnr,
    xref1                   LIKE           bsid-xref1,
    xref3                   LIKE           bsid-xref3,
  END OF gty_rup.
TYPES:
  BEGIN OF gty_rup_tiers,
    zztie                   LIKE           bseg-zztie,
    zzdat                   LIKE           bseg-zzdat,
    zzsea                   LIKE           bseg-zzsea,
  END OF gty_rup_tiers.
TYPES:
  BEGIN OF gty_data_solde,
    wrbtr                   LIKE           bsid-wrbtr,
    shkzg                   LIKE           bsid-shkzg,
    belnr                   LIKE           bsid-belnr,
    hkont                   LIKE           bsid-hkont,
    buzei                   LIKE           bsid-buzei,
    bldat                   LIKE           bsid-bldat,
    gjahr                   LIKE           bsid-gjahr,
    blart                   LIKE           bsid-blart,
  END OF gty_data_solde,
DATA:
  BEGIN OF lt_prps            OCCURS         0,
    key_client              TYPE           gty_rup,
    key_tiers               TYPE           gty_rup_tiers,
    data                    TYPE           gty_data_solde,
  END OF lt_prps.
Does someone know function working with only the table/structure name as parameter ?
Thanks

Answer 1

here's what I did....I opened the xfile2.txt with Excel 2007 and stepped through the import wizard as a tab-delimited file.  You're quite right it seems about the XLS function module.... I couldn't get a file downloaded that I could open with that thing.  So I dropped it and just did the following:
TYPES: BEGIN OF gtypx.
INCLUDE TYPE gty_rup.
INCLUDE TYPE gty_rup_tiers.
INCLUDE TYPE gty_data_solde.
TYPES END OF gtypx.
DATA: lt_prps TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF gtypx WITH HEADER LINE.
START-OF-SELECTION.
  lt_prps-kunnr = '1234'.
  APPEND lt_prps.
  LOOP AT lt_prps.
    WRITE:/ lt_prps-kunnr.
  ENDLOOP.
  DATA:  lv_filen type string value 'c:\xfile2.txt'.
