Hi,

It is not an Error.It is just an Information Message.

It wont affect the Program.Suppose if u r not giving any values for the Input Fields then the program itself take the Empty Field as '/' default.

Hi,

Yes, it is good solution, find the same in below.

LSMW is having 'GUI_UPLOAD' function module to upload data.

GUI_UPLOAD FM is having import parameter CODEPAGE.Whose functinality is to take care of such special character.

Include which is called for READ DATA step, you can very wel find out that the codepage is not suitable for your Portuguese language.

Do one thing write an BDC...Call GUI_UPLOAD FM and then Pass CODEPAGE number.

codepage number you will get from tcp00 table.

here is example to take care of special Japanese character:

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

EXPORTING

filename = l_ws_path

filetype = 'ASC'

has_field_separator = '#'

codepage = '6300'

TABLES

data_tab = i_aenr

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.
