java.sql.dat

[Ike]

For some reason (perhaps because I am running this on Windows?) when I
convert a string in yyyy-mm-dd format to a java.sql.Date, if it is before
April 6, 2003, the value is saved as one day less than is designated in the
String!

For example:

java.sql.Date.valueOf("2003-04-06")

gets stored as a java.sql.Date object as "2003-04-05."

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening, or any experience with such
things happening to them? Thanks, Ike

Daylight Savings Time is doing this. 2003-04-06 at 0:00 is changing to
2003-04-05 at 23:00.
