How to automatically set path and filename of sap .xlsx/.xls/.xlsm extraction with SAP GUI

I'm using a SAP GUI Script to make an extraction of a SAP transaction, but the scripts stops because of the save form

Save Form SAP

I have to write the filename and saving path manually, How can i do to let SAP do this automatically?

Code:

Public Sub RunGUIScript_PROJ_WP_INFO_INV()

Dim W_Ret As Boolean
Dim answer As Integer


' Connect to SAP
W_Ret = Attach_Session
If Not W_Ret Then
Exit Sub
End If


On Error GoTo myerr

session.findById("wnd[0]").maximize
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/txtGD-MAX_LINES").SetFocus
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/txtGD-MAX_LINES").caretPosition = 7
session.findById("wnd[0]").sendVKey 0
session.findById("wnd[1]/tbar[0]/btn[0]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tblSAPLSE16NSELFIELDS_TC/btnPUSH[4,1]").SetFocus

session.findById("wnd[1]/tbar[0]/btn[8]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[1]/btn[8]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/cntlRESULT_LIST/shellcont/shell").pressToolbarContextButton "&MB_EXPORT"
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/cntlRESULT_LIST/shellcont/shell").selectContextMenuItem "&XXL"

WaitingForm.Show

Exit Sub
myerr:
  MsgBox "Error while retrieving data", vbOKOnly + vbCritical

End Sub
Solution

  • Our SAP recently updated and broke many of my scripts, disabling the "show native MS Windows dialogs" allowed my previous code to run again. A basic SAP script cannot directly inteface with the MS windows dialog box shown in your screen shot.

    below is the code to set the path and file name

    session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/cntlGRID1/shellcont/shell/shellcont[1]/shell").contextMenu
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/cntlGRID1/shellcont/shell/shellcont[1]/shell").selectContextMenuItem "&XXL"
session.findById("wnd[1]/tbar[0]/btn[0]").press

'set path and file name
session.findById("wnd[1]/usr/ctxtDY_PATH").text = "\\network\path\to\folder\"
session.findById("wnd[1]/usr/ctxtDY_FILENAME").text = "Filename.xlsx"
session.findById("wnd[1]/tbar[0]/btn[0]").press
