I would not recommend "Learning Java For Android Development". Please read the review at http://timewasted.net/?p=190. I found that the book was difficult to read and made not connection to Android.
I recommend Mark Murphy's books "The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development" and "Android Programming Tutorials". After starting these 2 books I was able to create my first usable Android app quite quickly.

Thank you for the help. The code is loaded.

I suggest that a FAQ be added explaining how to add a page to the Wiki for us newbies.

I went to the Code Barn to start a page as suggested. The Intermediate area has READ ONLY in the top right corner. If I try to upload a file I get asked for my Java Ranch password over and over again. What am I doing wrong?

Our wiki here at JavaRanch has a section for code examples called the Code Barn. ... if you don't mind creating a page there ...

Where is the best place to share code for Swing components?
I am relatively new to Java.
I have developed an Android app for my smart phone which I use to log the various tasks that I work on. This helps a lot when it comes time to fill out my timesheet on Friday.
When my colleagues saw it they asked if I could convert it to a desktop app. While developing the desktop version I had to develop a DatePickerDialog in swing like the one in Android.
I would like to share this code with others in hopes of saving them the trouble of reinventing the wheel and to get some feedback on my code.
