Saving Unix SAP File as Windows SAP File

[Former Member]

Hi,

My FM having logic to create a file in Unix(OPEN DATASET.... CLOSE DATASET) is written in SAP System having Unix as a background O.S.

My job is to simulate the same code in SAP System having Windows as a background O.S.

Will the same FM logic (OPEN DATASET....) work in Windows SAP environment. ?

If not, can anybody provide me with an alternative so as how to go about doing the task.

Answers will be rewarded,

Hi,

OPEN DATASET statment is not specific to Unix, It is to handle the files with apllication server. If your SAP application server is Windows, You can use the same logic.

Instead if you want place the files in the presentation server(your local desktop), you can make use of the function module GUI_DOWNLOAD.

Reward the points if it is useful to you..
