Question

does anyone know of a way to format the date that is returned from a dateTime picker?

the following is returned
1/1/2012
i require
01/01/2012
any help would be appreciated

i currently have the following to set the date

date2.setText(new StringBuilder()
    .append(mDay).append(mMonth + 1)
    .append(mYear));

You can try this

String mDate="";
String mMon="";

if(mDay<10)
   mDate="0"+mDay;
if((mMonth+1)<10)
   mMon="0"+(mMonth + 1);

date2.setText(new StringBuilder()
    .append(mDate).append(mMon)
    .append(mYear));

or you can also use SimpleDateFormat
