You can use

 Date date = Date.valueOf(reverse(strDate));

In place of reverse, put a function that reverses a String

Use a StringBuffer. It already has a reverse method in it.

Hi,

You can use the parse() method of java.text.DateF ormat object which takes the String object and gives you the java.util.Date which you can later convert it into java.sql.Date.

You can even use java.text.Simpl eDateFormat class as well. Look at the APIs for more details. http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/....ParsePosition)

You can use the format() method for the reverse. (getting the String from the Date value)

Hope this helps.
