ther are many options. but uthis case if u change the user master record.or select the date format in table usr01.

the hard coating is not at all god and it also have limitation .

this function module also helps u.

CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL Converts date from system storage format to users specified display format

let me know if u are not able to get it.

reward all help full answers

/: SET DATE MASK = 'date_mask'

In the date mask, you can use the following codes:

DD: day (two digits)

DDD: day name - abbreviated

DDDD: day name - written out in full

MM: month (two digits)

MMM: month name - abbreviated

MMMM: month name - written out in full

YY: year (two digits)

YYYY: year (four digits)

LD: day (formatted as for the L option)

LM: month (formatted as for the L option)

LY: year (formatted as for the L option)

Assuming the current system date is March 1st, 1997.

/: SET DATE MASK = 'Foster City, MM/DD/YY'

&DATE& -> Foster City, 03/01/97

/: SET DATE MASK = 'MMMM DD, YYYY'

&DATE& -> March 01, 1997

The date mask may be reset to the default setting by using an empty string:

/: SET DATE MASK = ' '

In most print programs there is a function module called as below.

By setting the export parameter PI_COUNTRY one can set the form to print all dates according to country without any further coding.

CALL FUNCTION 'WFMC_PREPARE_SMART_FORM'

EXPORTING

PI_NAST = NAST

PI_COUNTRY = IS_DLV-LAND

PI_ADDR_KEY = IS_ADDR_KEY

PI_REPID = LF_REPID

PI_SCREEN = XSCREEN

IMPORTING

PE_RETURNCODE = CF_RETCODE

PE_ITCPO = LS_ITCPO

PE_DEVICE = LF_DEVICE

PE_RECIPIENT = CS_RECIPIENT

PE_SENDER = CS_SENDER.

Hi,

simply use the WRITE in the follow way:

DATA: lv_input_date TYPE d,

lv_reverse TYPE c LENGTH 8.

lv_input_date = '20080101'.

WRITE lv_input_date TO lv_reverse.

WRITE lv_reverse.

lv_reserve contains: 01012008

Kindly regards,

Stefan
