Date display

Hi friends,

When ever i try to display date, the output is displayed in the format of yyyy/mm/dd.

what is the technique to get the date in the dd/mm/yyyy format from the write statement.

i even set the settings under menu system --> user profile --> own data to dd/mm/yyyy, but still cant get the result in dd/mm/yyyy.

you have to do like this:

write sy-datum edit mask 'DD/MM/YYYY'. " TRY ALSO EDIT_MASK OR EDIT-MASK I'M NOT SURE..

ravi

data: d like sy-datum.

d = sy-datum.

write:/ d using edit mask '__/__/____'.

after changing the user profile in SU01 u have to log off the user & come again.

Log off now relogin & use write statement.

data : d1 type d.

d1 = sy-datum.

write d1.

Now u r output will be wat u set in user profile
