Disabling checkboxes
Hi,
I have 7 check boxes.
Sunday,Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday
I have set their names using JCheckBox.setName() to
Sunday = 1
Monday = 2
Tuesday = 3
Wednesday = 4
Thursday = 5
Friday = 6
Saturday = 7
I have gregorianCalender startdate and enddate.
I am trying to disable all the checkboxes that are not between startdate and enddate.
Iam able to get what is StartDay and endDay using
startDate.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK)
I am not able to proceed from there.
Can anybody help me with the logic.
Thanks.

I tried to do the same way.
public static ArrayList<Integer> Days() {
ArrayList<Integer> day = new ArrayList<Integer>();
day.add(1); //sample program direcltly entered valus
day.add(2);
day.add(3);
day.add(4);
day.add(5);
day.add(6);
day.add(7);
return day;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
ArrayList Days = null;
int StDay = 2; //for example
int EdDay = 5;
Days = Days();
for(int i=0;i<Days.size();i++) {
Days.get(i);
System.out.println(Days.get(i));
}
System.out.println("-");
java.util.Iterator it = Days.iterator();
for(int i = (StDay-1);i<Days.size();i++) {
// if(Integer.parseInt(it.next().toString())==2) {
if(Days.contains(StDay)) {
System.out.println(Days.get(StDay-1));
}
}
}

Your code is rather confusing... First, don't capitalize variable names, follow the java naming convention instead:
int startDay = 2;
int endDay = 5;
Also, I recommend you to assign numbers to weekdays starting from 0.
Then create an array of JCheckboxes as suggested. Here's a starting point:
JCheckBox[] checkboxes = new JCheckBox[7];
for (int i = 0; i < checkboxes.length; i++) {
checkboxes[i].setSelected(false);
// other operations on your checkboxes e.g. set their names
panel.add(checkboxes[i]); // this is your JPanel where to put the checkboxes
}
for (int d = startDay; d <= endDay; d++) {
checkboxes[d].setSelected(true);
}
Cheers,
