I have lv_total = 999999999966

I have make it

9.999.999.999,66 and pass it into lv_total or

say into another local variable lv_total1.

How to do this. Please suggest me .

WRITE lv_total TO lv_total

USING EDIT MASK 'RR___.___.___,__'.

is for upto 999.999.999,66 only

Increase the mask.

'___.___.___.___,__'

The problem is not due to edit mask not able to handle the value but the field length of lv_total. If you increase the length of the variable lv_total1 it should be able give you the result.

Still I did not use this in y program ...

U mean in the below stmt

WRITE lv_total TO lv_total

USING EDIT MASK 'RR___.___.___,__'.

I need to write

USING EDIT MASK 'RR___.___.___.___,__'.

AM I RIGHT ?

That's what I did and it seemed to work.
