Parsing to a date object

Hi all,

I want to parse a string to a certain date format, so I can save it in an oracle 10 database. I have tried several things like:

public void setDatum(String datum) {

SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");

this.datum = df.parse(datum)

}

When I do this the compiler says that df can't parse form Date to Date but, as you can see, I send a String with the parse() method.

BTW -->this.datum is a Date object.

Does anyone had this problem before or have a alternative solution for this.

thnx in advance
