hi,

use

read table s_date index 1.

write 😕 'ABCDEFG',

s_date-low,

'to',

s_date-high.

but this will works fine only if user enters only 1 range.

if he gives more than 1 range of dates, this would not work .

so what you can do is, send this date select-option to the table where you match the dates and fetch all the dates into the internal table .

example :

if your date is for material creation date & you would like to know the dates ,

data : begin of it_ersda occurs 0,

date type sy-datum,

end of i_ersda.

select ersda

into table it_ersda

from mara

where ersda in s_date.

sort it_ersda by ersda.

*--now IT_ERSDA table will have the valid material creation dates in ascending order.

read table it_ersda index 1.

v_startdate = it_ersda-ersda.

describe table it_ersda lines v_lines.

read table it_ersda index v_lines.

v_enddate = it_ersda-ersda.

now you can use write, to print the start date and end date.

write 😕 'ABCDEFG',

v_startdate,

'to',

v_enddate.

use this statement in TOP-OF-PAGE.

Hello Shehryar,

as a select-option may contain several values, the idea to display 'THE' value might not be possible at all.

If there is definitely only one value and you use list processing then you may write a header info in the at top of page list event.

Select-options will have multiple value but if you are sure its going to be only one. Then try following:

data: v_string(50) type c.

read table s_bldat index 1.

concatenate 'ABCDE' s_bldat-low 'to' s_bldat-high into v_string separated by space.

write: v_string.

Shehyar,

Try and use the below function module to print the description.

CALL FUNCTION 'SELOPT_PRINT'

EXPORTING

TEXT = TEXT-T07

TABLES

SELOPT = SO_VSTEL.
