JComboBox Date

[idi]

I have 3 ComboBox's. 1 for the date, 1 for the month and 1 for the year. Once the user has selected thier DOB using them, i get the selected item from each of the boxes by using the .getSeletedItem method. However i want to be able to join all the values together so i can save it as a Date type. Can someone please point me in the right direction. Tried searching for ages but i cant find nothing.
thanks

One possible way: use your data to create a String representation of the date, and then use SimpleDateFormat to parse the String. Another way, create a GregorianCalendar object with the data and then call getTime() on this object to return a Date object.

It's probably better to start your own thread for your own question but, in any case, did you try either of what Fubarable suggested? What happened?
