    How to fix this error?

    Check whether you have entered a valid file name. The file name must be
    valid for the operating system of the presentation server. The
    presentation server is the computer upon which the presentation of the
    SAP System runs and is different from the application server.
    Example:
    You are working on a Personal Computer (Op. system DOS/Windows or OS/2)
    as presentation server. This is connected to an application computer,
    upon which the SAP System is running (operating system, for example,
    UNIX). A file on the presentation server has the name
    C:\DATA\REPORT.TXT, for example. A file on the application server under
    UNIX has, for example, the name /tmp/report.txt.
    Check whether file &V1& has just been edited by an application. If, for
    example, you have already opened the file with a table calculation on
    your PC, then you cannot export data from the R/3 System to this file
    at the same time.
