OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT.

HI,
While doing unicode enable inECC6.0 FOLLOWING ERROR IS COMING.hOW IT WILL BE RESOLVED.
oPEN DATASET physname FOR OUTPUT.

Hello,
For opendataset u need to add the below coding.
open dataset 'filename' for output in text mode encoding default. ( Based on ur filetype)
binary mode encoding default
if it not a unicode system then non unicoding must be added.
N.B
In the Transfer stmt the data types apart from CNDT will result dump.
So please ensure that all are of CNDT types.

Open dataset filename for output in text mode encoding default

Hi,
When I excute this command I get a sy-subrc = 0, but no file is created. This happens in an ECC 6.0 system. In 4.6C works ok.
filename has the following structure '
server\directory\filename'
What am I doing wrong??
Thank you very much for your your help.
Regards.

Hi,
Can u tell what syntax u have written for open statement.
In programs with active Unicode check, you must specify the access type (such as ... FOR INPUT, ... FOR OUTPUT, and so on) and the mode (such as ... IN TEXT MODE, ... IN BINARY MODE, and so on). If the file is opened using ... IN TEXT MODE, you must still use the addition ... ENCODING. If the Unicode check is enabled, it is possible to use file names containing blanks.

OPEN DATASET file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING NON-UNICODE

Hi There,
I also have the similar issue. I am able to write the data into appliaction server in Chinese Characters using :OPEN DATASET datei FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT or OPEN DATASET datei FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING UTF-8. But when i save that file into my presentation server manually, all the chinese characters are showing as Junk.
When i use OPEN DATASET datei FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING NON-UNICODE, giving runtime error and when i use OPEN DATASET datei FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING NON-UNICODE IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS, No error but application server output itself showing as Junk characters.
Could you please suggest me what you have done?

Chaitanya A

Hi,
Use this
OPEN DATASET File_path FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING NON-UNICODE
WITH SMART LINEFEED
it will definitely work.

Open dataset (UNICODE) for english en polish characters

Hi,
I have a problem on my multi language project on where I need to manage English language and polish language.
I have a table (that we can call TABLE) I manage the translation on it. When I am connected in English I can see some squares instead some polishes characters. When I am connected in polish, I have the right characters. Any way I don’t think it’s a problem, cause if I copy/paste the square on Word, I find back the corrects characters.
My problem is after.
I have a structure with the collon name and an internal table with data.
I use the module function DDIF_TABL_GET on my table TABLE to have the collon name corresponding to the language wanted.
I am building a string with that and some carry return.
(Here in English I have again some square, but always the good character if I paste it on Words.)
Now I would like to put this string in a file using the good encoding.
I have tried lot of ‘opening dataset’ and lot of ‘encoding’.
I have a file on SAP (transaction FILE)
(Here in English I have again some square, but always the good character if I paste it on Words.)
If I download this file on my computer, I have wrong characters.
Could I have help?
My wrong code:
OPEN DATASET lv_filename FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING UTF-8.
TRANSFER u_contenu TO lv_filename.
CLOSE DATASET lv_filename.

Hi,
Use this
OPEN DATASET File_path FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING NON-UNICODE

Setting up FileName for Output file in SendPort

Hi - I have a requirement setting up FileName in output file. For instance say, whatever I receive in the 'FathersName' field that Output File should be with that File Name.
For e.g. if data received in FathersName field is JOHN, output file name should be JOHN.xml
I am using File Adapters on Receive and send side.
Can this be achieved just by Messaging Scenario or do I need to implement this using Orchestration ?
If so, please advise on how to do this ?
e.
MBH

To achieve this, you will have to set your filename value on one of the Context Properties available as a File Adapter macro. For example FILE.ReceivedFileName is mapped to the %SourceFileName% macro.
You have several options to do this:
Set FILE.ReceivedFileName in an Orchestration. It does not have to be Promoted.
Write the Property ReceivedFileName in namespace
http://schemas.microsoft.com/BizTalk/2003/file-properties in a Custom Pipeline Component.
If FathersName can be used in the file name unmodified, you set FathersName as a Promoted Property on the schema and Promote directly to FILE.ReceivedFileName.
For 1 & 2, you will have to extract FathersName somehow, such as a distinguished field.
A Custom Pipeline Component or direct Promotion are the only way to achieve this in Messaging only.

Open dataset filename length.

Hi all,
Could any one help me regarding opendataset.
i am creating files on app server using open dataset.
for one program the code i have written is working.
and for another the file is not getting created.
my doubt is is ther any restriction with file name length while using open dataset.
regards,
Murali.

Hi Murali,
There is no such restriction on file length ...but you may not be able to view the contents in one line ...but on downloading the data on to presentation layer via CG3Y you can view the entire record ...

Customized filename for output

Hi,
Is there someway to set the filename of an outgoing file adapter based on the contents of the file? We're processing invoices and would like to include the invoicenumber in the file containing the invoice ( each file can only contain exactly one invoice ).
Thanks in advance
Thomas

I use the following code in the xsl to create a custom filename:
<xsl:variable name="HR_ID"
select='/imp1:verstuurPlaatsingRequest/imp1:PlaatsingCompleet/ns1:StaffingAction/ns1:ReferenceInformation/ns1:HumanResourceId[@idOwner="StaffingCompany"]/ns1:IdValue[@name="id"]'/>
<xsl:variable name="FILENAME"
select="concat('albronuit_', kim:getCurrentDateTime('yyyyMMddHHmmssSSS'),'_', $HR_ID, '.xml')"/>
<xsl:variable name="SET_FILENAME_OUT"
select="ehdr:setOutboundHeader('/fhdr:OutboundFtpHeaderType/fhdr :fileName', $FILENAME, 'fhdr=http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/ftp/;')"/>
The first step takes the id from my input xml, the second creates the filename and the third passes this filename to the outboundheader.

Variable filename for output

Hey all,
I want to have the file I spool to in a sql script to change depending on the database I'm connecting to, but am unsure how to accomplish this. Can this be done? Can someone provide an example?

an alternative is to use a recent client and the predefined variable
$ export NLS_DATE_FORMAT='YYYY-MM-DD_HH24-MI-SS'
$ sqlplus scott/tiger

Runtime Error in OPEN DATASET

Dear All,
I am trying to upload a text file in application server. But I am getting the run time error which says-
" For the statement

In this case. the operand "f" has the non-character-type "u". The
current program is a Unicode program. In the Unicode context, the type
'X' or structures containing not only character-type components are
regarded as non-character-type."
If I remove the quantity fields then the error does not happen. But I have to take quantity fields also. Plz tell me what to do. My code is,

Thanks Sri for your help. I tried to apply the logic, but the error i am getting here is -
"IT_MSEG-ERFMG" must be a character-like data object (data type C, N,D, T, or STRING) STRING).
Same case here, if I remove ERFMG field, i do not get such error.

Err with scheduling an abap program using open dataset

issue: have an abap program which uses "open dataset ... for input ..." to read the file.
- with manual ly running it, receive the following message "dataset_not_open".
- with scheduling it, receive same message
attempting to run an abap program as part of a process chain (ie scheduling a background job) in BI.
the abap performs the following fxns:
1) read a file on the server
2) removes delimiter, renames it
3) rewrites the file onto the server
initially used ws_upload for reading and ws_download for writing the file.
- both fxns worked fine if it is run manually --> but failed as a background (part of process chain)
- note 7925 states can't use ws_upload, download for background jobs
-so switched to "open dataset"
Any suggestions as to why the "open dataset" does not work is greatly appreciated it.
B.A.

Thank you for all responses. here is more info about the err message:
sy-subrc = 8
'invalid argument'
I looked up the invalid argument in note 99155 --> due to "The destination file is no longer available during repeated file access. "   So, the following steps were taken:
- file was regenerated and
- file was placed on the server to be read
have the following code:
OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE encoding default
                      MESSAGE D_MSG_TEXT.
also have tried the following:
   OPEN DATASET d1 for input in text mode encoding default.
   open dataset d1 for output in text mode encoding NON-UNICODE..
   open dataset d1 for output in text mode encoding utf-8.
none had worked. system --> status shows no unicode.
THanks again for any suggestions.

Open Dataset fails with "Invalid Argument"

From an ABAP program I can't write to a share folder on a windows 2000 box. The share permissions are set to Everyone Full control. I can write to a share on a windows 2003 box, but not windows 2000. Here is my code:
data: filename type string.
data: open_message type string.
filename = '

open dataset filename for output
                        message open_message

                      encoding non-unicode.
write: /1 open_message.
I noticed that the kernel has the following info:
ICU Version                 2.6.1 Unicode Version 4.0
I was thinking there was a problem writing to a win 2000 box with an SAP Unicode Kernel.
Anyone have a clue?
Thank you,

hi
the shared folder must be accessible to the os user of your R3 installation. bcoz when u run the pgm this user will be used at the os level.
for checking this logon to the R3 os and try to access the share path. it should be accessible without providing any logon credentials.

Hi Friends
Earlier I used FTP option for picking and transferring files, now Instaed of FTP I am going with application server concept.
while receving, there is no problem between two types.But while transfrring the XML file from SAP to application server it generated some error, the format is not correect like that.But if I pass the same value in foreground its working fine.
here I am attaching the coding for application server and foreground method
open dataset filename for output in binary mode.
*open dataset filename for output in TEXT MODE Encoding UTF-8.

HI,
    YOu can use CALL TRANSFORMATION for converting into XML format .
CALL TRANSFORMATION id SOURCE root = lt_TABLE
            RESULT XML it_xml.
Then call DATASET

OPEN DATASET code

Hi all,
I have the following code to output data.
OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE encoding default.
my question is what the format of output file should be? Is there any specific requirement? And if I run this code successfully, I should save the file onto server. How can I see the file? Thanks in advance!
Linda

u need to declare an internal table which contains all fields of type c and length as correspodning to itab fields.
loop at itab.
tab-field1 = itab-field1.
tab-field2 = itab-field2...and so...on
append tab.
endloop.
so, tab will be having data which is in character format.
now, this internal table can be used to download to application server using datasets.

OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT.
