TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP FM is throughing an error

Question

Dear Friends,
I am uploading a xls file into internal table using TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP.
The file strusture is as below.
Row1: Customer City
Row 2: Customer City
Row2: 2000001 ABD
My requirement is to skip the first two row details, as they are just the field titles and i need not consider the first two row's.
I should pick the data from Third row onwards which is actual data.
I have to use this TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP FM only.
I have passed the 
i_line_header            =  'X'
in the function module it is deleting only one header hower to remove the other header what i have to do , because the FM is throughing an error  conversion_failed.
Please help me .
Thanks

Hi,
You can do it as follows:
TYPE-POOLS:truxs.
DATA:li_tab_raw_data TYPE  truxs_t_text_data.
DATA: BEGIN OF i_tab OCCURS 0,
       fld1(6) TYPE c,
      END OF i_tab.
CALL FUNCTION 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP'
  EXPORTING
  I_FIELD_SEPERATOR          =
  I_LINE_HEADER              =
    i_tab_raw_data             = li_tab_raw_data
    i_filename                 = 'C:\temp\test1_xls.xls'
  TABLES
    i_tab_converted_data       = i_tab
EXCEPTIONS
  CONVERSION_FAILED          = 1
  OTHERS                     = 2
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
  MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
          WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
LOOP AT i_tab.
  IF sy-tabix EQ 1 OR sy-tabix EQ 2.  "for first 2 rows
    CONTINUE.
  ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Or you can use following FM
ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE
call function 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE'
exporting
filename = file
i_begin_col = 1
i_begin_row = 3         "to start from 3rd row
i_end_col = 2            "depends on # of col's
i_end_row = 65000
tables
intern = iexcel
exceptions
inconsistent_parameters = 1
upload_ole = 2
others = 3.
Thanks,
