you can either use a date conversion exit.

e.G. the above described.

but a simple write to statement should help you as well.

Just declare youself a variable of type char length 10, and then write your dats variable to this char variable.

the conversion exit should be processed automatically.

Try this way

data v_date type sydatum.

v_date = '20080218'.

data v_date1 type string.

concatenate v_date6(2) '.' v_date4(2) '.' v_date+0(4) into v_date1.

write v_date1.
