Problem with the DateField??????????

Hi

I need to store mm/dd/yyyy in the datatable

Using the date.now.string( ) im getting todays date as 6/30/2008

But i need the date to be in the format of MM/DD/YYYY i.e  06/30/2008

I need to get 06/30/2008 instead of getting 6/30/2008

how can i achieve this ?

Any suggestions/Solutions are appreciated

Thanks in advance
