    could someone post up a bit of code illustrating how exactly to use this method or alternatively if there is a mthod in java that just returnd the time in hours and minutes could you post that up instead. Thanking you

    Date today;
    String dateOut;
    DateFormat dateFormatter;
    dateFormatter = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.DEFAULT);
    today = new Date();
    dateOut = dateFormatter.format(today);
    System.out.println("Date : " + dateOut + " " );


    // calling new Date() gives you a date as of 'now'.
