Default Date Picker Help Needed

Hello,

Hopefully this is something pretty simple. I need to retrieve the value showing on a Date Picker when a button is pressed. I have everything done except capturing the date when they click the button?

How do I catch the value showing on the data picker when they click the button?

All I need help with is the code that will go inside the IBAction for the button. I would then like to convert this into a string, but hopefully I will be able to figure that part out.

Can anyone provide assistance?

Thanks

Depending on what you called your datepicker this should work:
Code:
NSDate *pickerDate = [datePicker date];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
NSString *dateAsString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:pickerDate];
Of course you could simplify this by just using the date formatted on [datePicker date] but this shows you each part.
