Hi,

You can use the file download UI element for your requirment. You will have the Resource type context that is used to bind the File upload UI element. bind the same context to the file download UI element. And hence without any extra coding your requirment is achieved.

For deleting the Uploaded file delete the context element of type reource.

For your reference refer to the following link

Hello Raju,

what do you mean with "delete the context element of type reource". The file will not be deleted physically on the server, I guess. I want to physically delete the file.

Hi Patrik

1. Where do you store this file?

2. If this file is saved on a certain file system, you can easily delete this file using the File class,
    provided of course you hold the full path to this file.

3. Try

File f=new File("path");

if(f.exists() && f.isFile()){

f.delete();

}

Hi Guys,

It all depends on which server your files are stored.

For example, if its R3, then you must use a function module which will take the document and also return the document to your WebDynpro Java application. The data type in backend should be "xstring" to which you have to pass your document. You should convert the document into xml format before setting the value to the R3 field. The logic of displaying an already stored document and deleting it from the server should be handled in the ABAP function module.
