Urgent : Doubt on Output in UNIX FIle

HI Friends,
I have downloaded the output from my program into a text file.
In which i have 1matnr,1tab,1price.
it coming perfectly. I am using constant
constant: c_a type x value '09'.
this is giving a tab in text file.When i checked the output in Unix file, In the place of Tab a
Hash(#) is replaced there.
Can anybody help me to get only a material numer one tab and then a Date.
or Is it like a Hash is the denotion for a Tab in unix.

Hi gokul
I think you need to change File type in FM: WS_DOWNLOAD as 'DAT' or 'ASC' .

Direct RMAN output to UNIX file

How i could direct RMAN output to a file

How, indeed? Hmm.....
Wouldn't it be great if Oracle compiled information about their various software products and published it? Even better, what if they published it online, and made it available for free??
Wouldn't that be great?
Oh, wait, what's this?

Output device - printing in unix file - where do I define the UNIX path?

Hi,
We use an special Output Device to print spool requests directly in Unix. These Output Devices are defined as Local Unix File. When those spool requests are printed, a file is created in certain path in UNIX.
The question is where this link is defined?, I dont see where in the Output Device (trn SPAD) is defined the path in UNIX.
Thanks!
Aaron

Hi,
Might be the unix path would have been defined in the SPAD only under the Access method of the output device, in the field Destination host.

URGENT : Writing to UNIX file problem !

Hi friends,
I am stuck at a crucial point while uploading a UNIX file from ABAP program.
I am using open dataset & then transfer to...the file path.
But when I go and check the UNIX file it is split into 2 lines (it is supposed to be a
record with 1 line with 1500 characters) ! It shows a maximum of 255 chars in one line.Moreover,while I download to a text file via Txn CG3Y,some data are missing or truncated etc.
Please suggest how can I create a record with 1500 characters in UNIX and download it successfully with full data or how can I ensure proper data has been transferred as the record display is truncated.I checked the program its fine,only after transferring I get the problem.
Thanks,
Sandip.

The files would not get truncated. The file actually exists in App. server but you will be able to see only uptil 255 characters. You can check the same by downloading it onto Pres. server by specifying file type as BIN when you are downloading through CG3Y

Unable to Open unix file in UNICODE system which created NON-UNICODE system

Unable to Open unix file in UNICODE system which created in NON-UNICODE system
We have two SAP systems both are ECC6.0 but System 1 is NON-Unicode and System2 is Unicode system.
There is a common unix directory/folder for both system.
Our requirement is to create one file on unix common folder and write the data to file from system1 .
In system2 open the same file for appending mode to write the data .
The file in system 1 created with below sentence.
OPEN DATASET g_unix_file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING UTF-8.
Now I have to append the data from system 2 to same file.
I have tried to used below statement in system 2 to open the file but sy-subrc value comes as '8'.
1> OPEN DATASET g_unix_file FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE ENCODING UTF-8.
2>OPEN DATASET g_unix_file FOR APPENDING IN legacy TEXT MODE CODE PAGE

3>OPEN DATASET g_unix_file FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE ENCODING Default.
4>OPEN DATASET g_unix_file FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE ENCODING NON-UNICODE.
Tried out all the possibilities as per F1 help given for open dataset , but still there is problem with opn file in appending as well output mode.However the file successfully open in Input mode(Read).
Please advice suggestion to resolve this issue.
Thanks.

Transfer string to unix file

Hi Gurus,
I am converting data in an internal table (consisting of 5000 records) into XML string using CALL TRANSFORMATION. All data is stored in XML format in a variable of type STRING.
I am trying to write this data in a Unix file using TRANSFER statement.
The problem is all data is not copied into the file!
Can anyone suggest a suitable solution so that complete data in the string variable will be reflected in the file?
Regards,
Jack

Hi,
If you are opening the file in text mode, your itab fields have to be character type fields. So define another itab with fields of character type with lengths defined as per your output requirements.
You have understand that if you have floating, decimal fields, currency or quantity fields in your itab, they are know to SAP only, once you try to download such records, converting them into character form needs to happen.
Did you try the binary mode with your 'open dataset' statement?

Although I dislike MPEG-1 because of the large file size those .mpg files are commonly used on the Web. They can be played by nearly any computer and are not "Player" dependent like WMP or QuickTime so each user can decide how to view them.
As a bonus they are a "playback" format which makes editing and repurposing them a bit more difficult so your media is a bit more "secure".
I'll stick to QuickTime formats (avoiding H.264 video codec) and force QuickTime down their WiMPy throats. Millions of PC's have QuickTime installed (because of iTunes) and others can easily download the free Player and browser plug-in. By avoiding H.264 my files can be viewed on Mac's and PC's that can't install QuickTime 7.

Hi,
Try this way...
TRANSFER dobj TO dset [LENGTH len]
                                      [NO END OF LINE].
Addition 1
... LENGTH len
Effect
This addition determines how many characters or how many bytes of data object dobj are written to the file. len is expected to be a data object of type i that contains the number of characters or bytes. In text files, the content of len specifies the number of characters that are written from the storage. For binary files, legacy text file, and legacy binary files, len specifies the number of bytes that are written to the file. The first len characters or bytes are transferred and alignment gaps are included in the structures. If the addition LENGTH is not specified, all characters or bytes are transferred.
If the value of len is less than or equal to 0, no characters or bytes are transferred. If the file is opened as a (legacy) text file, however, a line end marker is inserted into the file by default. If the value of len is greater than the number of characters or bytes in dobj, hexadecimal 0 or blank characters are transferred to the file instead of the missing bytes or characters, depending on whether the file was opened as a (legacy) text file or a (legacy) binary file.

Kindly suggest some solution.
I need it very urgently.
Thanks!

Hello Sandy,
does this mean that you created an Excel file using OLE and named it *.txt?
And what do you mean by saving as TEXT(MS-DOS)? A csv file?
