Date format

[Milind Deodhar]

I have a frame which has a textbox , the values of which should be date and should update a date in a MS Access Database.
The date in the Access database is of Date/Time type with Short Date format.
How should I convert the string to date format which can be inserted in the database.

Create a java.util.Date object (may have to use Calendar) and then convert that to a java.sql.Date.
