Setting the date in the date picker

Hi,

In my application, I have a Input field mapped to a value attribute of type date. As a result, I am able to get a date picker/ editor associated with that Input field.

I am making an RFC call to fetch the date from the backend, and the date appears in the corresponding field. Assuming that the date that comes from the backend is 1/1/2006, now, When I click the date picker icon, it shows the month January of the year 2006 but the date that is currently available in the field, (1 st January) is not getting highlighted by default. Is there any way to highlight the same, in the date picker?
