Open data set / code page

Hello ,
I am sending file to print server  and i am accounting problems with  special characters
In first version of  program  ( please see the code below )
"OPEN DATASET g_filename  FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT."
The special characters l from German and French   alphabet were NOT printed properly  , and we had  some nonsense results . Other '"Normal "characters  like A , B... are printed without errors .
To prevent this error i wrote new line of code for open data set ( below ).
"OPEN DATASET g_filename FOR OUTPUT IN   LEGACY TEXT MODE CODE PAGE '4110'  IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS."
This was working only when FTP was NOT used  , when FTP was used i had  following short  dump.
I am working in SAP release 6.0
Please Advice
SHORT DUMP Message :
What happened?
    The conversion of texts in code page '4102' to code page '4110' is not
    supported here.
    The current ABAP program 'SAPLZPRN_AUTO_LBL' had to be interrupted because
     incorrect
    data would have been created by the conversion.
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CODEPAGE_CONVERTER_INIT', was
     not caught in
    procedure "Z_TRANSFER_FILE" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
     clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    Possibly, one of the codepages '4102' or '4110' - needed for the
    conversion - is unknown to the system. Another option is, that a Unicode
     codepage was specified for a file in LEGACY MODE, which is not allowed.
    Additional parameters for the codepage conversion (as , for example, the
     replacement character) might have invalid values. You can find further
    information under 'Inernal notes'.
    If the problem occurred at opening, reading, or writing of a file, then
    the file name was '/te/mm/labels/0488_20091208_051317_EC008119_01_001.dd'.
     (Further information about this file: " X ")

Hi,
Also check the character set supported by the Printer. Printer configuration should also be checked on SAP side to determine character set and code page using SPAD.

Nishad

    Hi,
    Due to serveral reasons
    1. Check whether you have proper authority in the directory?
    2. check the whether any files with same name?
    3. use addition message in the open dataset statement so that you can know the system message it getting.
    DATA: msg(100).
    OPEN DATASET wa_BSEG_file FOR OUTPUT MESSAGE msg

  • Open Data Set Issue

    Hello
    How can we set the length of the record size in the open data set. I have like 40 fields of internal table and I need to upload it to Appl server. I could do it but all the fields dont appear. How can set the record size ? Can anyone explain..Thanks

    HI Vicky,
    doesn't show all fileds: scence in the file?
    then either you are not passing the whole data or you are not selecting the whole data to the sending internal table
    change your declaration to the string rather than character....
    follow the code below:
    DATA:  filepath TYPE string.
    OPEN DATASET filepath FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
        LOOP AT l_xml_table INTO l_xml_rec.
         TRANSFER your itab TO filepath.
        ENDLOOP.
        CLOSE DATASET filepath.

    Hi,
    I solve the problem.
    In fact, when I try to write the last line of lt_content, it does write all the line even if this line is not full of data.

      ENDIF.
      SET DATASET lv_file_name POSITION END OF FILE.
      GET DATASET lv_file_name POSITION pos.
      SET DATASET lv_file_name POSITION 0.
      DO.
        CLEAR lt_content.

  • Answer the following question regarding GUI_UPLOAD and Open Data Set

    1. what’s the connection or relationship of S_GUI to GUI_UPLOAD?
    2. GUI_UPLOAD saves files to local directory of a use while OPEN DATA SET saves/archives files in the server directory.  Where is the risk directed towards consuming disk space?  Server disk or workstation disk space?
    3. how will this work for multiple files?
    4. Regarding Open Data Set - How the files will be put in AL11?

    The GUI_DOWNLOAD only download the file to local PC...so any abap code running in other pc will not able to use the file.
    BUt if you use open dataset to load the file APPLICATION server any ABAP pogram can access the file.
    Following code explains how you load file using open data setto appl server,
    you can check in t-code <b>AL11</b> for files/dir in applicatin server.

  • What is open data set and close data set

    what is open data set and close data set,
    how to use the files in sap directories ?

    hi,
    Open Dataset is used to read or write on to application server ... other than that i am not sure that there exists any way to do the same ... here is a short description for that
    FILE HANDLING IN SAP
    Introduction
    • Files on application server are sequential files.
    • Files on presentation server / workstation are local files.
    • A sequential file is also called a dataset.
    Handling of Sequential file
    Three steps are involved in sequential file handling
    • OPEN
    • PROCESS
    • CLOSE
    Here processing of file can be READING a file or WRITING on to a file.
    OPEN FILE
    Before data can be processed, a file needs to be opened.
    After processing file is closed.
    Syntax:
    OPEN DATASET <file name> FOR {OUTPUT/INPUT/APPENDING}
    IN {TEXT/BINARY} MODE
    This statement returns SY_SUBRC as 0 for successful opening of file or 8, if unsuccessful.
    OUTPUT: Opens the file for writing. If the dataset already exists, this will place the cursor at the start of the dataset, the old contents get deleted at the end of the program or when the CLOSE DATASET is encountered.
    INPUT: Opens a file for READ and places the cursor at the beginning of the file.
    FOR APPENDING: Opens the file for writing and places the cursor at the end of file. If the file does not exist, it is generated.
    BINARY MODE: The READ or TRANSFER will be character wise. Each time ‘n’’ characters are READ or transferred. The next READ or TRANSFER will start from the next character position and not on the next line.
    IN TEXT MODE: The READ or TRANSFER will start at the beginning of a new line each time. If for READ, the destination is shorter than the source, it gets truncated. If destination is longer, then it is padded with spaces.
    Defaults: If nothing is mentioned, then defaults are FOR INPUT and in BINARY MODE.
    PROCESS FILE:
    Processing a file involves READing the file or Writing on to file TRANSFER.
    TRANSFER Statement
    Syntax:
    TRANSFER <field> TO <file name>.
    <Field> can also be a field string / work area / DDIC structure.
    Each transfer statement writes a statement to the dataset. In binary mode, it writes the length of the field to the dataset. In text mode, it writes one line to the dataset.
    If the file is not already open, TRANSFER tries to OPEN file FOR OUTPUT (IN BINARY MODE) or using the last OPEN DATASET statement for this file.
    IF FILE HANDLING, TRANSFER IS THE ONLY STATEMENT WHICH DOES NOT RETURN SY-SUBRC
    READ Statement
    Syntax:
    READ DATASET <file name> INTO <field>.
    <Field> can also be a field string / work area / DDIC structure.
    Each READ will get one record from the dataset. In binary mode it reads the length of the field and in text mode it reads each line.
    CLOSE FILE:
    The program will close all sequential files, which are open at the end of the program. However, it is a good programming practice to explicitly close all the datasets that were opened.
    Syntax:
    CLOSE DATASET <file name>.
    SY-SUBRC will be set to 0 or 8 depending on whether the CLOSE is successful or not.
    DELETE FILE:
    A dataset can be deleted.
    Syntax:
    DELETE DATASET <file name>.
    SY-SUBRC will be set to 0 or 8 depending on whether the DELETE is successful or not.
    Pseudo logic for processing the sequential files:
    For reading:
    Open dataset for input in a particular mode.
    Start DO loop.
    Read dataset into a field.
    If READ is not successful.
    Exit the loop.
    Endif.
    Do relevant processing for that record.
    End the do loop.
    Close the dataset.
    For writing:
    Open dataset for output / Appending in a particular mode.
    Populate the field that is to be transferred.
    TRANSFER the filed to a dataset.
    Close the dataset.

  • How to use open data set in SAP

    Hi SAP Gurus,
            Could anyone help, how to use open data set in SAP.
          I need to upload a file from Application server (ZSAPUSAGEDATA) to internal table (IT_FINAL).
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi Krishna.
    These are the steps you need to follow.
    tables: specify the table.
    data: begin of fs_...
            end of fs_    " Structure Field string.
    data: t_table like
            standard table
                      of fs_...
    data:
    w_file TYPE string.
    data:
      fname(10) VALUE '.\xyz.TXT'.
    select-options: if any.
    PARAMETERS:
      p_file LIKE rlgrap-filename.
    w_file = p_file.
    select .... statement
    OPEN DATASET fname FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
    *OPEN DATASET fname FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
    LOOP AT t_... INTO fs_....
    write:/ .....
    TRANSFER fs_... TO fname.
    or
    TRANSFER t_... TO fname
    ENDLOOP.
    CLOSE DATASET fname.
    Reward points wisely and if you are benefitted or ask for more detailed explanation if problem not solved.

  • Open data set from Text mode to Binary mode

    Hello All,
    In a program i am using the command
        OPEN DATASET file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE
        ENCODING NON-UNICODE IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS.
    Now i want to change this open data set to binary mode. I mean to change the command like below.
    OPEN DATASET file FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
    when i do this. the output in the file is totally changing. I mean previously i have some text now i have some diffrent characters.
    How can i use this command with out change in the output as previous output. Please tell me  the changes and why i have to do.
    OPEN DATASET file FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
    Regards,
    Lisa.

    Text Mode means that the records in the file have a carriage return marking the end of each record.
    Binary Mode means the file is a string of data.
    You can't read a text file in BINARY MODE, or a binary file in TEXT MODE.
    If you are changing the mode, then you must be supplied with a file in the new mode.

  • Open Data Set Encoding

    Hello all,
    Can we specify Encoding in the OPEN DATA SET statement,i found out that we can encode it with UTF-8.
    but i want to encode my data in Latin1 ISO-8859-1.
    is it possible?
    if yes how to do it?
    plz help its urgent:(

    Hello Surmeet
    For me this sounds like that your string contains characters from two different encodings, e.g. ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-2.
    You could try to use option
    OPEN DATASET ... IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS.
    Alternatively, you could surround the OPEN DATASET statement with a
    TRY.
      OPEN DATASET ...
    CATCH CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE INTO lo_error.
      ld_msg = lo_error->get_text( ).  " get the message text
    ENDTRY.
    block and analyse the error message text. Hopefully you will find some hints to solve the problem.
    <i>Note</i>: For details refer to the ABAP keyword documentation of OPEN DATASET.

    Change TYPE X values to TYPE C in data declaration ans then call class CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES
    For "0D0C" call class:
    for 0D:
    CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
    DATA : C_CR TYPE C VALUE  CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF.

  • OPEN DATA SET PROBLEM

    Hello ,
    I use the command OPEN DATA SET in order to upload file content from server ,
    the problem is that i getting error :_No such file or directory ._
    the file is exist in server I can see it when i put the path on windows  start->run
    and i give the permission for the folder to everyone .
    1. My question is what i miss here
    2. when i do little test and try to use GUI_UPLOAD i see the file content so i don't understand what is wrong here the file is not on my local PC
    Regards

    hi James,
    the parameter file_name receives the name of the file (ja, ja, ja.......)
    here comes the explanation:
    in the transaction FILE you must define phisical and logical path for a file:
    for example:
    MY_FILE => pointing to the folder /host/temp/
    and here comes the call to the function in your program:
    CALL FUNCTION 'FILE_GET_NAME_USING_PATH'
        EXPORTING
          client                     = sy-mandt
          logical_path               = l_path    " the name of your logical path defined in trx FILE (MY_FILE)
          file_name                  = p_filename " the name of the file you want to read (for example: file.txt     )
        IMPORTING
          file_name_with_path        = file_trg
        EXCEPTIONS
          path_not_found             = 1
          missing_parameter          = 2
          operating_system_not_found = 3
          file_system_not_found      = 4
          OTHERS                     = 5.
    in the variable file_trg you should  get the value /host/temp/file.txt  (from the example)  to do the open dataset.
    sorry about my english
