Have you tried using the BeanUtils converters. From the docs:
*org.apache.commons.beanutils.locale.converters.DateLocaleConverter
*
Standard |LocaleConverter| <cid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> implementation that converts an incoming locale-sensitive String into a |java.util.Date| object, optionally using a default value or throwing a |ConversionException| <cid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> if a conversion error occurs.
It sounds like it might help, but I haven't used it before so i can't comment. At the very least the source might be useful if you decide you need to write your own DateUtilities.
HTH.

Is there already a set of DateUtilities for ActionForms?
I am finding myself converting to and from Strings and also reformating my Dates to and from my DB.
I am using EntityBeans and ValueObjects with my ActionForms, so to keep the types in synch, it seems I have to do serious conversion all the time.
Thanks in advance for the help.
