GUI_UPLOAD+HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR

[Former Member]

Hi everybody .

In my program, I use the fm GUI_UPLOAD to upload the flat file which separator is the pipe(|).

Exemple of line : AAA|BBB|CCC|DDD

HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR='|' not working, so how can i use this fm and define SEPARATOR as pipe .

thank in advance

Thanks for your repply

if i keep it as 'X' it will be defined as space .. so fm can't interpret file.

The GUI_UPLOAD function recognize only tab delimeted files when you pas 'X' at parameter

HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR

try FM

CALL FUNCTION 'FILE_READ_AND_CONVERT_SAP_DATA'
      EXPORTING
        I_FILENAME                 = S_IFILE
        I_SERVERTYP                =  'PPRS' "GUI UPLOAD
*       i_fileformat                = SFILEFORMAT
         I_FIELD_SEPERATOR          = ';'
*     I_LINE_HEADER              =
*   IMPORTING
*     E_BIN_FILELENGTH           =
   TABLES
     I_TAB_RECEIVER             = I_TABLE
   EXCEPTIONS
     FILE_NOT_FOUND             = 1
     CLOSE_FAILED               = 2
     AUTHORIZATION_FAILED       = 3
     OPEN_FAILED                = 4
     CONVERSION_FAILED          = 5
     OTHERS                     = 6 .

Hi ,

I believe the field separator parameter will work for Excel files..You have to get the internal table in a string format..and then use split statement..

Use the below code it work for me..

DATA: BEGIN OF it_tab OCCURS 0,

object_id TYPE string,

version_series_id TYPE string,

version_number TYPE string,

revision TYPE string,

doc_number TYPE string,

doctitle TYPE string,

filesize TYPE string,

mime_type TYPE string,

plantunit TYPE string,

END OF it_tab.

DATA: t_tab TYPE TABLE OF string,

v_string TYPE string.

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

EXPORTING

filename = 'C:\TEST.TXT'

• has_field_separator = '|' "Actually not required.*

TABLES

data_tab = t_tab

EXCEPTIONS

file_open_error = 1

file_read_error = 2

no_batch = 3

gui_refuse_filetransfer = 4

invalid_type = 5

no_authority = 6

unknown_error = 7

bad_data_format = 8

header_not_allowed = 9

separator_not_allowed = 10

header_too_long = 11

unknown_dp_error = 12

access_denied = 13

dp_out_of_memory = 14

disk_full = 15

dp_timeout = 16

OTHERS = 17.

IF sy-subrc 0.

ENDIF.

LOOP AT t_tab INTO v_string.

SPLIT v_string AT '|'

INTO

it_tab-object_id

it_tab-version_series_id

it_tab-version_number

it_tab-revision

it_tab-doc_number

it_tab-doctitle

it_tab-filesize

it_tab-mime_type

it_tab-plantunit.

APPEND it_tab.

CLEAR: it_tab.

ENDLOOP.

Hi,

The t_tab and V_STRING are string type only.

DATA: BEGIN OF it_tab OCCURS 0,

object_id TYPE string,

version_series_id TYPE string,

version_number TYPE string,

revision TYPE string,

doc_number TYPE string,

doctitle TYPE string,

filesize TYPE string,

mime_type TYPE string,

plantunit TYPE string,

END OF it_tab.

the t_tab should contains only character format or string format.

DATA: t_tab TYPE TABLE OF string,

v_string TYPE string.

if you have the Quantity field in you internal table you can change the type like character format or string format.

After calling the GUI_UPLOAD function module the t_tab contains all the records of what is there in the flat file.

v_string is for work area for the internal table t_tab.

if you have the quantity field in the internal table change it into character field. Why because split statement is working only

C, N format only.

Dhina..
