Depending on the format of the date field, you may not require the DT function. Here is a working example:

-SET &BEG_DATE = 20100101;
-SET &END_DATE = 20101231;

DEFINE FILE CAR
FLG/A1 = 'Y';
KEY/A3 = '102';
CDT/YYMD = 
IF COUNTRY EQ 'ENGLAND' THEN '20100302' ELSE 
IF COUNTRY EQ 'FRANCE' THEN '20080623' ELSE 
IF COUNTRY EQ 'JAPAN' THEN '20101215' ELSE '20010306';
P_REVN/I2 = 65;

REVN/I11 = IF 
(FLG EQ 'Y') AND 
(KEY EQ '101' OR '102' OR '103' OR '104' OR '105' OR '106') AND 
(CDT GE '&BEG_DATE' AND CDT LT '&END_DATE')
THEN P_REVN ELSE 0;
END

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
REVN
BY COUNTRY
END

My BEG_DATE and END_DATE are in YYMD format and CDT is a Date-Time field ,so for the comparison I used DT() function.There is no problem with that.

I think there is a problem with the IF statement.
Can somebody help me.

You might want to put in brackets, like
REVN/I11=IF (FLG EQ 'Y') AND
            (KEY EQ '101' OR '102' OR '103' OR '104' OR '105' OR '106') AND
            (CDT GE DT(&BEG_DATE)) AND
            (CDT LT DT(&END_DATE)) THEN P_REVN ELSE 0;
It might just do the trick. If not, one of the fields you use is not in the master file/define list - possibly misspelt.
