convert String to sql.Date - seems not so easy to me

The string needs to be in the JDBC format (yyyy-mm-dd) for the following to work:java.sql.Data theDate = java.sql.Date.valueOf(theString);

or you could do something like:java.util.Date utilDate = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy").parse(theString); // or use whatever format your string is in

java.sql.Date sqlDate = new java.sql.Date(utilDate.getTime());
