Thanks for the reply, but unless I can get it to work with java.util.Date I
will stick with the java.util.Timestamp because THIS DOES WORK implicitly
without having to use SimpleDateFormat or any try/catch blocks.

<html:hidden name="myBean" property="myRecord.myDate"/>      <!-- modify
with date picker tag -->

  public setMyDate(Timestamp myDate) {
    this.myDate = myDate;
  }
  public Timestamp getMyDate() {
    return this.myDate;
  }

Using this I can round round trip the date as Timestamp using only basic
getters and setters.  But I would PREFER it was java.util.Date which I can't
get to work.

Hi
I would read the property as a String and then use
SimpleDateFormat to convert it to time stamp, i am not
sure if this conversion is done automatically in bean
public setMyDate(String myDateString)
 {
//i dont remmember the date format
try
{
SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat();
java.sql.Timestamp myDate =
format.parse(myDateString);
this.myDate = myDate;
}
catch(Exception exc)
{
}

   }
