display a DateChooser on the click of a button.

Hi
I want to display a DateChooser that will come as a small pop-up window on the click of a JButton.
Any clues of how to do that?
Thanks.

I am going to assume you mean DateChooser but I could be way off.
Add an action listener to your button that constructs a new DateChooser, displays it, and then queries it for the selected date.

import net.homelinux.wiz.datechooser.DateChooser;
    ...
    JButton button = new JButton("Push me");
    button.addActionListener
    (
      new ActionListener()
      {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
        {
          DateChooser datechooser =
            new DateChooser(frame, true, "Choose a date", 0, 0);
          datechooser.setVisible( true );
          String s = datechooser.getSelectedDate();
          // do something with the string here.
        }
      }
    );
    ...
