Incorrect result using the function ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE

Question

I have used the function ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE to load a Excel sheet on an internal table and the function returns the following result:
Row  Col   Value
0001 0001 902000100 A601 K 627542130 021 AGARDUN ZMAS 673 EU

0011 0001 902000110 A611 O 627542140 031 AGARDUN ZMAS 893 EU
That is to say, the excel sheet has nine columns, and the function thinks that only has 1 column.
I have checked the function with the same file in other computers, and the result has been the correct one, that is to say, the function returns the value of the column in its corresponding column:
Row  Col   Value
0001 0001 902000100
0001 0002 A601
0001 0003 K

Can you help me?
Thanks.

Hi Garduño,
1. U want to upload data from EXCEL
into internal table.
2. and u are using ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE.
3. But We cannot do this direclty !
For uploading purpose :
6. There are TWO options.
a) either save the excel to TAB Delimited file,
and use GUI_UPLOAD to upload the data in internal table.
b) use FM for excel purpose.
7. a) is easy and recommended
8. b) there is a FM for it,
but we have to apply some more logic
bcos the FM uploads data of excel
in the intenal table,
CELL BY CELL
9. afTER THAT , we have to convert this cell by cell data,
into our format of internal table.
10. use this code (just copy paste in new program)
(it is tried wit T001 structure data)
(it will AUTOMATICALLY based upon the
fields of internal table,
convert data from cell by cell,
to that of internal table fields)
REPORT abc.
DATA : ex LIKE TABLE OF alsmex_tabline WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA : t001 LIKE TABLE OF t001 WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA : cmp LIKE TABLE OF rstrucinfo WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA : col TYPE i.
DATA : col1 TYPE i.
FIELD-SYMBOLS :  .
DATA : fldname(50) TYPE c.
CALL FUNCTION 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE'
EXPORTING
filename = 'd:def.xls'
i_begin_col = 1
i_begin_row = 1
i_end_col = 100
i_end_row = 100
TABLES
intern = ex
EXCEPTIONS
inconsistent_parameters = 1
upload_ole = 2
OTHERS = 3.
BREAK-POINT.
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_COMPONENT_LIST'
EXPORTING
program = sy-repid
fieldname = 'T001'
TABLES
components = cmp.
LOOP AT ex.
AT NEW row.
IF sy-tabix  = ex-value.
ENDLOOP.
BREAK-POINT.

amit m.
