Hello Priya

You could code like this:

PARAMETERS:
  p_date     TYPE default syst-datum,
  p_file       TYPE filename default 'documentnamefile20071120.txt'.

PARAMETERS:

p_date TYPE sy-datum default sy-datum,

p_file(80) TYPE c default 'document\name\file20071120.txt'.

This should work.

Hi,

SY-DATUM will be the current date or the date in which execute the program..

Is this what you want..

Do you want the parameter text as "Run Date"..

Please let me know..

Thanks,

Do you really want the users to be able to change this? If not, make it a normal data field and not a parameter. You can still handle this programatically.

PARAMETERS:

p_date TYPE sy-datum default sy-datum,

p_file(80) TYPE c default 'document\name\file'.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUPUT.

execution date

concatenate p_file sy-datum '.txt' into p_file.

Now whenever the report is run, The execution date will populated in the file name as you wanted.

Hope this solves your problem.
