Date Format to Input Element

[Former Member]

Hi everyone,

I am using class object cl_dd_form_area. I have a couple of input elements. Is

there a way to set those input elements to have a text format like a date format?

mm/dd/yyyy ???

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks,

Stephen

Hi,

use CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT

OR use SET DATE MASK.

Hi

U can use the statament WRITE with option USING EDIT MASK:

DATA: TEXT_IN(8) VALUE '02122008',
           TEXT_OUT(10).

WRITE: TEXT_IN USING EDIT MASK '__/__/____' TO TEXT_OUT.
