FM or Way to validate Date format. The date is from TEXT File

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I need to validate a date field whether it is in proper format.

The field is coming from TEXT file to Internal table by using FM GUI_UPLOAD.

Can any one give me the FM name or guide me how to do that?

Definitely points will be given for correct solution.

Thanks & Regards,

Neeraj

try the function module 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'

  call function 'DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY'
       exporting
            date                      = '23.09.2007'
       exceptions
            plausibility_check_failed = 1
            others                    = 2.
  if sy-subrc <> 0.
    write:/ 'Please verify the date'.
    exit.
  endif.
