Download data

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Could anyone tell me how to donload data of an internal table to a local file in WD ABAP.

I tried FM GUI_DOWNLOAD also but it gives "CONTROL_FLUSH_ERROR" for FILETYPE = 'BIN' and "UNKNOWN_ERROR" for FILETYPE = 'ASC'.

could anyone please tell me how to download data ASAP.

Regards,

Vishal.

FULL points would be rewarded.

Hi Vishal

You can use the method like this

CALL METHOD CL_WD_RUNTIME_SERVICES=>ATTACH_FILE_TO_RESPONSE
  EXPORTING
    I_FILENAME      = 'test.xls'
    I_CONTENT       = lv_name
    I_MIME_TYPE     = 'XLS'

Here parameter i_content should be of type XSTRING

Why in background? Web dynpro is not something you would normally use in background?
