Hi

As per my Knowledge, we can upload/download text file (ASC format ) only to AL11.

You try this,

You download the data into an internal table in ABAP program. There use OPEN DATASET in BINARY MODE, READ DATASET, CLOSE DATASET.

Hi,

You can upload your file from the presentation server

into one internal table having structure same as that of

flat files structure then you can use statements to download

the internal table content on to the application server:

data: w_dataset1(27) value '/test_var/textfile.txt', 
w_dataset2(27) value '/test_var/outfile.txt'. 

*Downloading text file to Application server. 
open dataset w_dataset2 for output in text mode. 
loop at itab.                                                       "internal table having data
transfer itab to w_dataset2. 
endloop. 
close dataset w_dataset2.

Hope it helps

Hi rasheed,

YOu cannot directly view the PDF from AL11.

As others mentioned, you can STORE the pdf on the application server using GUI_UPLOAD methis, file type as BIN and then use OPEN dataset, tranfer, close dataset statements to put the file in the application server.

Later, you can use GUI_DOWNLOAD to download it back to desktop to view it.

Once the data is uploaded inthe form of BIN data, you can use the function modules

CONVERT_OTF_AND_ARCHIVE

CONVERT_OTF_AND_FAX

CONVERT_OTF_AND_MAIL

to send as email or fax..

Hi Rasheed,

As others said, you read the file in binary mode using gui_upload.

Then write that ITAB in binary mode into application server.

If you want to retrieve this file ( pdf file ) ,then read the dataset in binary mode into an ITAB and again download it on to presentation server with extension as .pdf.

PDF is a file format understandable on your presentation server because you have adobe installed in your PC, but application server doesn't have such things, so even if you write a dataset with .pdf extn they are just files.

hope this clarifies.

You can try this by reading .jpg .jpeg or anyother files in binary and store them in app server and again reconstruct them back in same format.

Hello,

Use Function module ARCHIVFILE_CLIENT_TO_SERVER

First create report program through se38

call FM ARCHIVFILE_CLIENT_TO_SERVER

Path = 'Desktop path'

Target path = '/ app/server/dir'

Use this FM to any type of file transfer.
