Hi Anna,

You might like to take a look at the Apache Jakarta Commons Validator stuff.

Obviously if you just want to validate a date it's overkill, but there is lots 
of other helpful stuff in there you might find useful.

  Jim:

   

  Do you have a date validation routine?

  I have one, it's ugly enough. It checks the value of the month, then the 
value of the day, compares it with the array of valid values.

  I need more professional one, that uses Java classes.

   

  I was also looking for a numeric field validation, but just found one.

  And want to share it with our people.

  It's neat, isn't it?

  I'm looking for a date validation routine in the similar style.

   

  Thank you and the code follows.

  Anna 

   

    int number=0;   

        while (number == 0) {   

      String input=JOptionPane.showInputDialog("\n\tEnter numeric value.");   

      try{   

  number=Integer.parseInt(input);   

      }catch(NumberFormatException nfe)   

      {   

  Number = 0;   

      }
