Textfield with calculated date

[toxy]

Hello!

Again I need some help... (iReport 4.1.1)

I have a textfield in my report with two dates, today and a date some days later. My problem is the sytax for adding days to the date:

"Geburtstagsliste vom " + new SimpleDateFormat( "dd.MM.yyyy" ).format( new Date() ) + " bis " + *today+2days*) ???[/code]

I've found some postings about "calendar.add(...)" but my tries are all...

thanks a lot!

Try adding "manually" two days in milliseconds.
For example: new SimpleDateFormat( "dd.MM.yyyy" ).format(new Date().getTime()+86400000*2)

But IMHO is not good solution. But it must work.
