HI,

Try this..

DATA: DATE_CHAR(20).

DATA: DATE TYPE SY-DATUM.

DATA: MONTH_NAME LIKE T247-LTX.

DATE = SY-DATUM.

SELECT SINGLE LTX FROM T247

INTO MONTH_NAME

WHERE SPRAS = SY-LANGU

AND MNR = SY-DATUM+4(2).

CONCATENATE SY-DATUM+6(2) MONTH_NAME SY-DATUM(4)

INTO DATE_CHAR SEPARATED BY SPACE.

WRITE: / DATE_CHAR.

Thanks,

Hi Chandra,

Welcome to SDN.

You can also try like this.

DATA: GD_DATE LIKE SY-DATUM, 
      GD_STRING(20) TYPE C,
      GD_DAYS(10) TYPE C,
      GD_MONTH(10) TYPE C,
      GD_YEAR(10) TYPE C,
      GD_TEXT LIKE T247-LTX.

GD_DATE = SY-DATUM.      <--- giving the date here

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_IN_GET_DATE_COMPONENTS'
  EXPORTING
    IDATE = GD_DATE
  IMPORTING
    DAY = GD_DAYS
    MONTH = GD_MONTH
    YEAR = GD_YEAR
    LTEXT = GD_TEXT.
 
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
  CONCATENATE GD_DAYS GD_TEXT GD_YEAR 
              INTO GD_STRING SEPARATED BY SPACE.
ENDIF.

WRITE:/ GD_STRING.

Hope this will help.
