Date Conversion

Former Member — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 10:56:19 GMT

Hi All,

I have a requirement to change the date format.

ls_selopt-low = 2007.1.1 This input date should be converted to 20070101. I need to understand is there any FM to do this.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Narayan & Kiran,

Thank you both for the quick answer.

The input date is coming from web so i cannot declare the selct option the way you suggested.

I have used the FM CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL does not give me any result if the input is like the one i gave in first message 2007.1.1.

Please suggest
