Help: boundary value problem

I need to solve a nonlinear ordinary second-order differential
equation on a closed interval, knowing the value of the solution at
the ends of the interval.  Is there a way of solving this problem
using Mathematica, or does Mathematica only deal with initial value
problems?
If the latter, is there some function which performs the shooting
method, so I can transform the boundary value into an initial value
problem?
Thanks,

Marco de Innocentis
