Hi Harish,

You can write the peice of code mentioned above, but if you have more than one dates to format, always create a simple type of Built-In type Date with Representation as mm-dd-yyyy

Using Simple Types is a good practice.

Hope this helps you.

Hi,

Already lots of thread discuss about Date format.

try this

   String DATE_FORMAT = "mm-dd-yyyy";
   SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(DATE_FORMAT);
   String fromDate=sdf.format(wdContext.currentContextElement().get<Your Date Attribute>());

Regards,
