Hi kiran,

      thanks for the reply, how ever I would like to know what I need to do with the path which I will get after file upload..how to use that path to save PDF file .

Hi,

There are FM that are used to read file based on path.

Some of FM's are

RZL_READ_FILE

RZL_READ_FILE_LOCAL

RZL_READ_FILE_REMOTE

RZL_READ_FILE_REMOTE_SH

or try using class

CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES

For uploading into system, check whether your going to use DMS concept or just upload the data into FTP path. This one will be based on your business requirement.

Hi saurabh,

1. create upload ui element in the view and bind with context elements for retrieve the file.

2. after the retrieve the file save some where( database) or application server.

3.create a application for above wd component

4. create a ivew for integrating above application in the portal.

5. test

Hi,

You want to save the uploaded file to data base.? If so, Create an attribute file_data of type XSTRING in the context and in the properties of file upload UI, bind the 'data' to the created attribute.

Now in the onAction of a button(or any) to save the file, read the attribute file_data and save to DB.

check this wiki for reference:  http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/Upload+and+Download+files+in+Webdynpro+ABAP

note: To save to DB, you need to create a filed of type RAWSTRING.

hope this helps u.,

Regards,

Kiran

Hi,

use fileUpload UI for uploading files. there is no special adding for portal integration, this will work well in portal as well.
