I am having trouble formatting a date.  I get a date entered in a 
display field and find the prior 6 days. 
        The date is entered in the format mm/dd/yy.  This date entered in
 the displayfield formatss  ok, but Date2, Date3, etc. come out in the 
Long format.  I tried the format type in ND and I tried 
java.text.SimpleDateFormat("mm/dd/yy") and it worked except the month
 was always 00.   (00/01/99)

CODE
//get the date entered on the screen
String Datex = getDisplayFieldValue("tbDateEntered").toString;

//get the prior 6 days
Date Date2 = new Date(Datex.getYear(),Datex.getMonth(),Datex.getDate() - 1);
Date Date3 = new Date(Datex.getYear(),Datex.getMonth(),Datex.getDate()- 2); 
....ETC.                                                
Any idea on how to format my output to mm/dd/yy in Date2, Date3,...?
Thanks,
Steve
