Hello,

I came across this blog that talks about ABAP to XML and visa versa.

It is really about parsing xml files into ABAP tables and visa versa, so I thought that since

you are trying to read xml and were looking for a functional module, sounds like this offers a solutuion for you.

Perhaps it could be useful to your requirements? Please have a look.

Hope it helps

Hello

I would advise you to check the following blog to help you further with your questions:

[http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/17662] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken];

Your question is so short and doesn't give any context to what you want to perform or what you are looking for it's almost impossible to give a proper answer to it.

Why do you need SAP to read a XML file, in which context, to achieve what end result etc, please post more details to what you are asking.

Kind regards

Tom
