Congratulations on being the 1,000,000th person to ask this question! And as the standard reply goes. You do not "convert" date formats. A Date is a Date. It does not have a format. You provide the format you wish using a SimpleDateFormat. You may also use the SimpleDateFormat to parse a String into a Date object using a pattern you provide. ...

It is almost impossible to say any bug fix will be foolproof, especially when you are working on a large tightly coupled application.

You can see that they convert the date into a java.sql.Date class which means that whatever ...

You should probably get in three distinct inputs, year, month, and date (preferably in integers).
