You can use @NikitaBeloglazov method if you are using DatePicker. But in other situations, where you have a date as string, you can use SimpleDateFormat class to do the parsing and formatting for you.

If you use DatePicker then you get year, month and day as ints. So to build desired string you can use String.format:

String.format("%d%02d%02d", year, month, day);
