Question:
Is there any way to save a program in SAP like how we do it for java?
Eg: when you save a file as .java to a USB, you can just drop it the file off to any computer which has a java compiler and run it there
Is there any way to save the complete source code of the program? Eg: ideally with INCLUDES, txt symbols etc included
I found this on the net but it isn't working :/

Answer:
I print the program to the spool, view it on the spool, and then download to my PC using system->list->save.
I did use some of the more sophisticated upload/download tools, but to be honest, I find I rarely use them. If I'm wanting to store programs for personal use, it's usually for certain techniques - for this, printing works fine.
Otherwise, make a transport of your object with all its components, and have your friendly basis people transfer you the transport file.

Hmm.. It wouldn't save the code in INCLUDES tho :/

What is it???????

Hmm... This option is probably doable. I can copy the code to IDES and do it from there if i have access to transport the file? What are the steps for this?

From SE38, enter the name of the program. Then choose PRINT. You get a popup which allows you to print includes, sorted alphabetically, if you wish, with source code,attributes, text elements, messages, documentation and cross-reference.
I've no idea what the upload download program I used was called. It was in 31H anyway, so I doubt my version would work anymore.
For the transport route, create a transport of copies and release it. The file will be somewhere on the app. server file system.

m@t,
I went to SE38 and press 'print' as instructed by you but i do not see any pop up window which allows me to print includes,sorted alphabetically,etc
I am on 4.7.
Answer:
I'm fairly confident that bit of functionality has been around a while at least since 30F, so it's a bit odd that you don't get it.
Have a look if program SAPLSEUW, screen 0100 exists. That is the popup screen.
It has to be done from the first screen of SE38. It doesn't work from within the editor.
cheers
