Check below function module

<b>SDIXML_DATA_TO_DOM</b> Convert SAP data (elementary/structured/table types) into DOM (XML)

<b>SDIXML_DOM_TO_XML</b> Convert DOM (XML) into string of bytes that can be downloaded to PC or application server

<b>SDIXML_DOM_TO_SCREEN</b> Display DOM (XML)

<b>SDIXML_DOM_TO_DATA </b>

incorporate these changes.

after the call of 'FB_CONVERT_FORM_TO_XML' remove all other function calls except gui download

and use the following code

data: dtab type standard table of solix.

data: filelength type i .

CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'

EXPORTING

buffer = X " variable holding xml in xstring

TABLES

binary_tab = dtab .

filelength = xstrlen( X ) .

now use dtab in gui_download and the file type has to be BIN and pass filelength .

Hi Raja,

Thx

another question.

I wanna create a SystemAction,which can create a PDF corresponding my BSP-page. so i need a according SmartForm. i wanna know ,how i can dynamically create a smartform, or can modify the smartform on the fly?

the weblog /people/sap.user72/blog/2004/11/10/bsphowto-generate-pdf-output-from-a-bsp i have read and tested.

FM OPEN_FORM, WRITE_FORM, CLOSE_FORM...

Can man modify the Smartform with WRITE_FORM? Can you give me some suggestions and code.

Thanks in advance

best regards.

sorry i am not a SMARTFORM expert thus can tell you whether you can dynamically at runtime create smart forms or modify them. may be close this thread and open another thread wiith your new question.
