    Check table <b>USR01</b>, field <b>DATFM</b>.

    if DATFM = 1, format is DD.MM.YYYY

    If you want the path, SYSTEM --> USER PROFILE --> OWN DATA

      Hello Arun,

      In case of the BDC, you have to know the format in which the date is stored in the file. Let us say that the date in your flat file is stored in the format DD/MM/YYYY. 

      data: w_flat_file_date(10) value '29/12/2004'.
data: w_temp_date type d,
      w_screen_date(10) type c. 

w_temp_date+0(4) = w_flat_file_date+6(4).
w_temp_date+4(2) = w_flat_file_date+3(2).
w_temp_date+6(2) = w_flat_file_date+0(2).

write w_temp_date to w_screen_date.

      Now, w_screen_date contains the date in the format in which it is displayed on the screen.

      Hope this helps,

      Regards,

      Anand Mandalika.

    System date format is always YYYYMMDD.

    if you want to find out about user specific date format you can get the same from USR01-DATFM
