yeah that was a good point from Dmitri. I tried to define two setter methods
for my date field. one is a String argument and the other one is a date
argument. When I ran the App, it complained about not able to find the
setter method. So may be there is some thing like that happening in ur code.
Thanks,
Uday.

Just an idea...
Struts uses JavaBeans Introspector to discover
properties of beans. Introspector is pretty picky in
the way it decides whether something is a property or
not. Specifically, it requires that
1) Both getter and setter be declared public and
non-static
2) The return type of the getter be the same as the
type of the argument of the setter.
Check if your property breaks one of these rules.

What sort of field on the form is it (not that it
should matter)? a
<html:text> or something
else. And is it a "Integer" or "int" for the setter?
I'm using it as a nested property as well, so the
jsp looks like
<html:text property="user.key" size="20"
maxlength="80"/>
But I couldn't see anything in the code that would
cause a problem with
this.
