Hi Aryan,

For Amount, try out the below code...it will work fine.

REPORT ZAMT_DAT .

TYPES amt TYPE p DECIMALS 3.

data : v_amt(16) type c ,

v_amt1 type amt value 100,

v_len type i,

v_len1 type c,

p_date(10) type c value '23012008'.

v_amt = v_amt1.

condense v_amt.

v_len = strlen( v_amt ).

v_len = 16 - v_len.

do v_len times.

concatenate '0' v_amt into v_amt.

enddo.

write : v_amt.

For date, set the user settings as below...

system-userprofile->owndata->defaults->dateformat

set it to the 4 th radio button....

it will work fine.

Thanks
