My requirement is to generate a formatted spreadsheet (with certain font size, borders, colors etc) on the shared drive (not application server) when a program is executed as a background batch job with data that is extracted from the SAP database.
I've formatted the data in xml and downloaded it using 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' (passing raw data).
My question -
How do I insert 'Header' and 'Footer' onto the excel. Note that this is not a column header but the excel header where you would regularly see a page number or document name,
On the excel go to -> Insert -> Header & Footer
This is the ABAP code i'm using -
Creating a ixml Factory
l_ixml = cl_ixml=>create( ).
* Creating the DOM Object Model
l_document = l_ixml->create_document( ).
* Create Root Node 'Workbook'
l_element_root = l_document->create_simple_element( name = 'Workbook' parent = l_document ).
l_element_root->set_attribute( name = 'xmlns' value = 'urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet' ).
ns_attribute = l_document->create_namespace_decl( name = 'ss' prefix = 'xmlns' uri = 'urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet' ).
l_element_root->set_attribute_node( ns_attribute ).
ns_attribute = l_document->create_namespace_decl( name = 'x' prefix = 'xmlns' uri = 'urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel' ).
l_element_root->set_attribute_node( ns_attribute ).

please review this part of the code
l_worksheetoptions = l_document->create_simple_element( name = 'WorksheetOptions' parent = l_element_root ).
l_PageSetUp = l_document->create_simple_element( name = 'PageSetUp' parent = l_worksheetoptions ).
l_header = l_document->create_simple_element( name = 'Header' parent = l_PageSetUp ).
l_header->set_attribute( name = 'Left' value = 'HeaderTest' ).
******************************************************************************************************************
* Styles
r_styles = l_document->create_simple_element( name = 'Styles' parent = l_element_root ).
