Parameters of FM:KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4

[Former Member]

Hi , experts.

When I use FM: KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4 , I am puzzled by the parameters.

Can you explain FIELD_NAME, STATIC and MASK in Import?

Hi,

File_name is the parameter that you declared to have the file name

mask is used for filter..In case if you want to browse xls..you will give *.xls

Static will be X ..not sure about it..

Ex...

PARAMETERS: filename LIKE rlgrap-filename MEMORY ID M01.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR filename.

CALL FUNCTION 'KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4'

EXPORTING

mask = '*.xls'

static = 'X'

CHANGING

file_name = filename.

Hi,Narendran.

Thanks for your answer.

Can you explain more ?

In your example, you didn't use FIELD_NAME, can you tell me why?And when we can use FIELD_NAME?

And why the value of STATIC is 'X' , can be another value?

Regards,

All are default declared so all will be type C with one char and default blank

VALUE(FIELD_NAME) DEFAULT SPACE

VALUE(STATIC) DEFAULT SPACE

VALUE(MASK) TYPE C DEFAULT SPACE

you can send the value 'X' or space in that all will work as a flag.

Hi,

Take a look at this code

REPORT ZF4_FILENAME.

TABLES SSCRFIELDS.

PARAMETERS:  P-FILE LIKE RLGRAP-FILENAME DEFAULT 'C:TEMPSAP.XLS'.

* Double click on TEXT-001 and type Save In
SELECTION-SCREEN PUSHBUTTON /35(10) TEXT-001 USER-COMMAND F4CLICK.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN.

IF SSCRFIELDS-UCOMM = 'F4CLICK'.
 call function 'F4_FILENAME'
  EXPORTING
    PROGRAM_NAME        = SYST-CPROG
    DYNPRO_NUMBER       = SYST-DYNNR
    FIELD_NAME          = ' '
  IMPORTING
    FILE_NAME           = P-FILE.
ENDIF.

or

Function KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4

PARAMETERS: filename LIKE rlgrap-filename MEMORY ID M01.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR filename.
  CALL FUNCTION 'KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4'
       EXPORTING
            mask      = '*.xls'
            static    = 'X'
       CHANGING
            file_name = filename. 

Cheers

Hi..

Mask is used to Limit the Files with some extension

Eg:

<b> mask = '*.XLS'</b>

FIELD_NAME is the Filed on Screen to which the File name has to be returned.

Eg:

<b>FIELD_NAME = 'P_FILE'</b>

hi feng,

<b>KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4</b> FM is a Filemanager support to locate file in a directory (on value request).

<b>FIELD_NAME</b> : Name of field where path is to be entered. This the the Dynopro field name where ur selected filename will be populated.

<b>MASK </b> : MASK is a normal printout which specifies the files which can be

selected.

Structure of MASK: ','<text>','<FILTERGROUP>+'.'

Structure of FILTERGROUP: <filter>';'<filter>*

Example: CALL FUNCTION .. EXPORTING .. MASK = ',.,..' .. generates

the file selector mask with the defaults File name: empty, Save as type:

.

<b>STATIC</b> : Static is used as some flag.

If Static is SPACE then ur filepath will be set to blank. And it calls the FM <b>WS_FILENAME_GET</b>.

ELSE.

It calls FM <b>SO_SPLIT_FILE_AND_PATH</b>. This FM is used to split filename and pathname.

PARAMETERS: p_file LIKE rlgrap-filename MEMORY ID M1.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR filename.

CALL FUNCTION 'KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4'

EXPORTING

MASK = ',Textfiles,*.txt'

STATIC = 'X'

CHANGING

FILE_NAME = p_file.

Thanks , Harimanjesh AN.

Can you explain more about FIELD_NAME and STATIC?Or give me some examples which have these key worlds?

I wrote an example below:

REPORT ztest_li

MESSAGE-ID ZEIF01.

*SELECTION-SCREEN DEFINITION

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK B1 WITH FRAME.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.

PARAMETERS: P_CHK1 AS CHECKBOX DEFAULT 'X',

P_FILE LIKE RLGRAP-FILENAME.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK B1.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN.

IF P_CHK1 = 'X' AND P_FILE IS INITIAL.

MESSAGE E011 WITH 'FILE'.

ENDIF.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR P_FILE.

CALL FUNCTION 'KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4'

EXPORTING

mask = ',.,.'

static = ' '

CHANGING

file_name = P_FILE.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE E011 WITH 'FILE'.

ENDIF.

I changed the value of STATIC, STATIC = 'X' ; STATIC = ' '.But the result is the same.

feng.
