Hello guys, i want to create a text field that will be for date and will have dd.mm.YYYY format. Now what i want to do is the user to type only the numbers, not the dots to. So the field would be like: _ _. _ _ . _ _ _ _

So when the user wants to type the date: 15.05.2010 for example, he will only type the numbers in the sequence 15052010.

Also i would like, when he preses on left or right arrow, the cursor to go from one field(not JTextField, but field in the JTextField). So lets say i have JTextField with text in it: 15.05.2010, so if user is on the beginning and he preses right arrow, the cursor to go to the .05 field.

I hope you understand me 'cos right now i don't any idea how to make this, or at least how to look for it on google.

Thank you.
