Hi everybody,

In my layout i have displayed the expiry date as 08.2007 & i want that to be changed as 08/07.

Is there any possibility?

Thanks & Regards,

If u have

v_date = '082007'

then write like this.

write:/ v_date0(2) ,'/' , v_date4(2).

data: dat(7) type c.

dat = '08.2007'.

concatenate dat0(2) '/' dat3(4) into dat.

write dat.

If you are looking for formatting date in a sapscript/smartform..use the control command SET DATE MASK

/: SET DATE MASK = 'date_mask'

try..

/: SET DATE MASK = 'MM/YY'.
