Validating date in the format 081703 - possible?
Hi,I've erm probably got a really simple question but my little brain can't figure out a solution.So here goes.Does anyone know whether the following date format can be checked via a FM in SAP.in YYYYMMDD the format would appear 20030817,but I'm recieving it in the format 081703?Any ideas?I suppose I could split it into YYYYMMDD format and then insert '20' at the begining,but I just thought I'd see if anyone had a better way of doing this.Thanks a lot.Lyra Belaqua
