Date objects are pure timestamps and are fully independent of any
formatting. You seem to say that you already have a date object--just
convert it to a string using a different SimpleDateFormatter, as in
Date d = .... // Whereever you got your date from
SimpleDateFormat outFormat = new SimpleDateFormat ("MM/dd/yyyy");
String s = outFormat.format (d);
If you have a string in the format and you're trying to produce a date
object, parse it with different formatter
SimpleDateFormat inFormat = new SimpleDateFormat ("EEE MMM dd hh:mm:ss zzz
yyyy");
Date d = inFormat.parse ("Sat Oct 22 00:00:00 IST 2005");
