hi,

If you want to open the file on the click of some button then create a button and action for the button.

what is this ZTREE/S.DOC about?

The URL of the doc would be:

http://your.server.com/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/wdcompnent Name/template.doc

This is the place where Document gets stored if you import into Mime.

do i need to use OFFICE_CONTROL UI element in this.

For this you dont need any other UI.

OK...got it...Thanks again...can you please tell me what is the role of transaction SICF in this? Should i go for SICF for any kind of verification.

ICF services must be activated.

There are some configuaration settings which you need to do to run wd abap application.

The MIME Repository is used to store all MIME objects (style sheets, graphics, icons and so on) in the SAP System. MIMEs are created as objects in the SAP database.

Refer SAP Online help on Mime :

Hello Sourav,

I have done it sucessfully but got another issue with look and feel im getting in this component. I actually wanted to open that document(.doc or .xls) within component itself (i.e., within browser). For your reference please have a look at the standard component IOS_TEST_SPREADSHEET_MS. I guess this kind of output is possible by using office control element only.

pleae advise.

Yes , if you have to open the document within the same application then you have to go for Office Control UI element.
