Dear experts,

I need to export some data located in internal table out to my C disk in backgrpund. Function module "Download" and all the relevant ones do not work in batch, and the READ DATASET command only access the SAP server and not my C: disk.

Please help.

Thank you in advance,

Roxani

USE gui_download.

create a variant for that program with the file name etc.. & assign the program in to background job. it will download the data to the given presentation server file.
