}

Set the text for a JLabel at the bottom of the GUI to be the following String:

java.util.Date currentDate = new java.util.Date();
String date = currentDate.toString();

i have tried to implement it but its not wrking...

Date is actually deprecated and should be replaced with Calendar

java.util.Calendar now = java.util.Calendar.getInstance();
String currentTime= java.text.SimpleDateFormat.getInstance().format(now.getTime());

Ah yes Ezzaral is correct - sorry for that :$

thanks. Alot
