I am trying to set up a strict entry pattern for a date format of MM/dd/yyyy I used the following code: public static final SimpleDateFormat GLOBAL_DATE_FORMAT = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy"); static{ NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getIntegerInstance(); nf.setMinimumIntegerDigits(2); nf.setMaximumIntegerDigits(4); GLOBAL_DATE_FORMAT.setNumberFormat(nf); GLOBAL_DATE_FORMAT.setLenient(false); } I call GLOBAL_DATE_FORMAT.parse(value) and it catches most things but lets an entry such as 1/20/2003 pass. Shouldn't the minimumIntegerDigits(2) force the "1" to be a "01"??
