date operation in select statement

[prasad]

Hi experts,

is there any way to compare   the

month and date of  table  field with month and date of

sy-datum .

for Example 

By using the select statement

   select pernr nachn vorna from pa0002 into  TABLE itab where gbdat = sy-datum.

the query retrieving results in which the gbdat equal to sy-datum( no records are fetched because for ex gbdat =19800918 and sydatum = 20120918 )

but i want to compare only the month and date of gbdat field with month and date of

sy-datum .

Did you try to consider date field as 8 characters long field.

TABLES: pa0002.
DATA: itab TYPE TABLE OF pa0002,
      wildcard TYPE c LENGTH 8.
wildcard = sy-datum.
wildcard+0(4) = '____'.
SELECT * INTO TABLE itab
  FROM pa0002
  WHERE gbdat LIKE wildcard.
BREAK-POINT.

Happy birthday ?
