SAP .NET Connector 2.0 News
SAP .NET Connector 2.0 is available for download as a Beta version from http://service.sap.com/connectors.
As the things work fairly different from Version 1.0, here some tips to get started:
– Download the ZIP and extract the MSI.
– Installl it. You need Visual Studio 2003 beeing installed.
– Start Visual Studio.
– You see the documentation in “Content”.
– Create or open a VB or C# project.
– Add new item “SAP Connector Proxy” (go down the list).
– Open Server Explorer.
– Select the “Data Connections” node and click on “Refresh” button. Do not right click and select “Refresh”, but click the small button on top of the Server Explorer Window. You should see the SAP root node.
– Add your SAP Server nodes and drag Functions or BOR objects to the designer.

I tried using the .Net connector as per the documentations provided, but when ever I tried to drag and drop a function module into the designer space it gave me this error
“System cannot find specified path” in the back ground though the “loading data. Please wait” screen is active and the slider is running.
I am able to see contents of BOR and functions specified in my filter, but am not able to drop them into my designer proxy.

Sounds to me like an issue with the Path to Java.exe in the registry. Please check that the \JavaHome points to the correct Java home which as bin\java.exe in it.
Thanks a lot for your help, was exactlly that you have explained in your mail, I installed some months ago another program that put an java runtime version and it was wrong in the register, yesterday I installed the new java runtime version and now SAP connector for .Net is working fine.
Thanks again and regards from Brazil

I am working in SAP as a consultant.
So No company will give me access to SAP Service.
What should I do?
How to Update myself?
Thanks
Rajendra
If so, in which release will this be available ?
Greetings...
does the new .net connector support the mapping of XML files to IDocs. Then I had to write function which makes this possible. But it is better if the .net connector support them.
If I wanted to use a self written function module with it, how do I relate the file created in that as per BRKNAI/BRKNAITable in the Customer_Get function for example (which are "created" in the new version via drag and drop) as these are the "files" used in the VB.net program.
Thanks
Jim
I have created my VB.net program with the SAP.net DLLs included but when I load it onto a client PC, it says the SAP connector is missing. It isn't - as it is in the directory/folder that the program was loaded into. What am I doing wrong or do I have to separately install the SAP.Net connector on each PC that needs it ?
One other thing, can you ask the user to sign onto SAP from a Windows form as well as from the Web version ? If so, how would I do this ?
Thanks again
Jim
To deploy a application you need the following DLLs in either your application directory or GAC/System32:
SAP.Connector.DLL
SAP.Connector.Rfc.DLL
LIBRFC32.DLL
Creating a Windows Forms based logon screen is terribly simple: Just drag a destionation to a form (you can drag the server item to get a pre-initialized one and create some text boxes. Then data bind the textboxes to the properties of the destination. If I have time, I will post a sample.
If you manage to get a sample Windows form login created, can you please include a VB version ....
Thanks
Jim
But guess what - it wasn't. The RFC I used in my program and the one used in all the demos (RFC_Customer_Get) does not exist any more. So now until I can work out the most appropriate BAPI and if it passes across the same data etc, I've had to comment out the direct SAP links and put it back to data entry by the user.
Not impressive from SAP
Jim
I am using .Net connector 2.0. ould anybody tell me how to use BAPI in .Net using connector.
I am able to use RFC but no idea of BAPI.
Thanks & Regards,
Manish Gore.
