An alternative is to use java.util.Calendar.after (java.lang.Object)


You might also want to check java.text.DateFormat.parse (String) to convert the
entered date to a java.util.Date object.


Kind regards

     Just one of the many possible solutions
     Utilizing StringBuffer class, convert it to the int in the format yyyymmdd and compare it with another int representing the current date in the same format.
