Hi Bobby,

Since your Date format is not decided(xyz format), I think you need to decide your approach.

To dispaly the Date form System Format to User Format the FM 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL' is used.

Consider this code.

REPORT zztest_arun_2.

DATA: e_date(10) type c VALUE '2/2/2006',

i_date(10).

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL'

EXPORTING

date_external = e_date

IMPORTING

date_internal = i_date

EXCEPTIONS

date_external_is_invalid = 1

OTHERS = 2.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

WRITE : / 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL',

/ 'My Date:' , e_date ,

'Conv Date:', i_date.

skip 2.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL'

EXPORTING

DATE_INTERNAL = sy-datum

IMPORTING

DATE_EXTERNAL = e_date

EXCEPTIONS

DATE_INTERNAL_IS_INVALID = 1

OTHERS = 2

.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

WRITE : / 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL',

/ 'My Date:' , sy-datum,

'Conv Date:', e_date.

Thanks,

Hi

DAY_OUT(4)     = DAY_IN+6(4).
DAY_OUT+4(2) = DAY_IN+3(2).
DAY_OUT+6(2) = DAY_IN(2).

The FM CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL or CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL will solve your purpose.

DATA: c_date(8) TYPE C.

CONCATENATE chardate6(4) chardate3(2) chardate+0(2) INTO c_date.

date(10) = '25/07/2007.

day = date+0(2).

month = date+3(2).

year = date+6(4).

*date --> your date.

data: w_date like sy-datum.

concatenate date6(4) date3(2) date+0(2) into w_date.
