Get/Set datepicker value

It might be a silly question but I didn't find a way to get or set value of 'Ext.form.field.Date' control. getValue() returns null, setValue() does nothing.
Where can be mistake? 

var filterFrom = Ext.create('Ext.form.field.Date', {
    xtype: 'datefield',
    id: 'From',
    name: 'From'
});

// ...

filterFrom.getValue(); // null

If declare change listener for picker, it fires on setValue() call, but nothing changes on UI.

Solution 
  • filterFrom.setValue(new Date());
filterFrom.getValue();
> Date {Tue Feb 14 2012 00:00:00 GMT+0100}
filterFrom.setValue(new Date('December 19, 1989 03:24:00'));
filterFrom.getValue();
> Date {Tue Dec 19 1989 00:00:00 GMT+0100}

    These work for me with your code (I just added a misssing ) after } in line 5.
