Hi Saurav,

Hi,

You can use the method ATTACH_FILE_TO_RESPONSE of CL_WD_RUNTIME_SERVICES to launch the MS Word document.

But for this you need to pass the data in XSTRING.

So if you can convert the smart form content into XSTRING, you can use this method to launch the Word document from within Webdynpro.

Thanks,

hi,

Kindly refer the SAP Online help on Office Control UI Element which is used to open word files in WD ABAP Application :

You can use UI element OfficeControl to add an Office document to a view. This means you can display the following Office documents within a Web Dynpro application:

● Microsoft Word documents

● Microsoft Excel documents
