SimpleDateFormat class is needed

 Help with Code Tags 
 Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
      ......
       String yourdate="12-Aug-2009";
       String currformat="dd-MMM-yyyy";
       SimpleDateFormat fd=new SimpleDateFormat(currformat);
       Date d1=fd.parse(yourdate);
 
       System.out.println(d1);
       String newformat="dd-MM-yyyy";
       fd.applyPattern(newformat);
       StringBuffer b=new StringBuffer();
       System.out.println(fd.format(d1,b,new FieldPosition(0)));
       ....
      ......
       String yourdate="12-Aug-2009";
       String currformat="dd-MMM-yyyy";
       SimpleDateFormat fd=new SimpleDateFormat(currformat);
       Date d1=fd.parse(yourdate);

       System.out.println(d1);
       String newformat="dd-MM-yyyy";
       fd.applyPattern(newformat);
       StringBuffer b=new StringBuffer();
       System.out.println(fd.format(d1,b,new FieldPosition(0)));

You could have printed this:

//fd.format(d1)
System.out.println( fd.format(d1) );
//fd.format(d1)
System.out.println( fd.format(d1) );
