hi,
Here I am posting code for your requirement.
Here I am hard coding the date value.
import java.util.*;
public class DateTest{
     public static void main(String ar[]){
          Calendar calendar =new GregorianCalendar(2007,7,4);
          System.out.println("DAY_OF_WEEK: " + calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK));
          calendar.set(2007,7,4-calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK)+1);
          System.out.println("DAY_OF_MONTH: " + calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
          System.out.println("MONTH: " + calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH));
}
