Date date;
date = JDateChooser.getDate();

if (date == null) 
        {
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Choose Date from Right Box.", "Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
            JDateChooser.grabFocus();
            return false;
        }

String s = ((JTextField)dateChooser.getDateEditor().getUiComponent()).getText();
if (s.equals("") {
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Please type birthday", "Warning!", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
}

I used DateChooserCombo. and The following code worked for me.

String test = dateChooserID.getText();
if(!test.equals("")){
//DO WHATEVER YOU WANT (DATE IS SELECTED IN THIS CASE);
}
else{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "date not choosen");
}
