change military time to Standard time

SimpleDateFormat standard= new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm");
SimpleDateFormat military = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm");
String regular = standard.format(military.parse(fromdb));

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/text/DateFormat.html, u have lot of options here

Thank you object.   but i'm still get an error when trying to parse the object from the database (or in the case the vector that was created from the database).  This is the error:

unhandled exception: java.text.ParseException
and it's for this line code from below:
regular = standard.format(military.parse(y.get(1).toString());

y.get(1)  is an object from the vector that's the way it was put in.   Do I need to cast it to a string or something to make this work???   Here's the method i'm using:

    public ArrayList getTimeSlotTime(){
        ArrayList timeSlotTime = new ArrayList(this.size);
        SimpleDateFormat standard= new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm");
        SimpleDateFormat military = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm");
        String regular;
               
        Vector y;
        for(int i = 0;i < size;i++){
            y = (Vector)slotIdVector.elementAt(i);
            regular = standard.format(military.parse(y.get(1).toString());
            timeSlotTime.add(i,regular);
        }
        return timeSlotTime;
    }

Thank you!!!

No worries :)

Actually, "the regular standard time" as you say is just a queer time format used in the US, while "military time" (24h) is the norm. (Much like the imperial system of measurement).

Come on, catch up =)
