You can use split into three variable(s) at '.'.

and concatenate the month and date with '-'.

data x_month(11).
data lv_datum type sy-datum.

lv_datum = sy-datum.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_LDATE_OUTPUT'
  EXPORTING
    input         = lv_datum
 IMPORTING
   OUTPUT        = x_month.

write x_month.

gives:<b>07.Oktober</b>

and with the date 20050501:<b>01.Mai</b>

Hi,

Then you can split and concatnate the string. Sample code :

<b>

SPLIT date_old AT '.' INTO strn1 strn2 strn3.
CONCATENATE strn2 strn1 INTO date_new.

</b>

Here date_old has 07.October.2005 and date_new will have October07. Here strn1,strn2,strn3 are also strings.

Hope this solves your problem.

Ravikiran.

DATA: char1(2) type c,

char2(10) type c,

char3(4) type c.

SPLIT '07.October.2005<b>(Output from the funtion module)</b>' at '.' into char1 char2 char3.

concatenate char2 char1 into char2 separated by '-'.

write: /char2(<b>Desired field).</b>
