Check the below syntax..

IF NOT p_sdate2 IS INITIAL.

IF p_sdate2 > p_sdate1.

MESSAGE e001(00) WITH text-007.

ENDIF.

IF NOT p_ddate2 IS INITIAL.

IF p_ddate2 > p_ddate1.

SET CURSOR FIELD 'P_DDATE1'.

MESSAGE e001(00) WITH text-007.

ENDIF.

SET CURSOR FIELD 'FIELD'

FIELD SHOULD BE IN CAPITAL LETTERS.

HOPE IT HELPS>

Hi Subbu,

Please ensure you put the SET CURSOR FIELD '<fieldname>'. command before the MESSAGE (raising error) command.

Once you raise an error message, the program control does not go to the next command. Hence place the SET command, before MESSAGE and check.

Cheers,
