Urgent Help

[ilarum]

Hi,
I have String of this format 08/25/2003 or 08.25.2003. I need to convert this to a Calendar. How do I achieve this. Well the reason for this format of String is that in these values are retrieved from a HTML input tag where the user enters and they need to be converted to Calendar type. How can I achieve this. Its a bit urgent. Could somebody provide help on this.

With Regards
Murali

hi murali,

you can set the date of a calender object using its setTime method, which as a parameter requires a date object.

The date object you can set to the date with a little string interpretation using the date object's set methods.

check this link out:

look for the calender object and browse its methods

hope this helps...
