Hi!
I have some questions about formatting in java...
How do I format a social security number in java?
How do I format time in the hh:mm:ss format?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Kerri,
I don't know about ss# but for date/time use the following:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat( "hh:mm:ss" );
It can be found in java.text.* package.
Regards,
Manfred.

Formatting SSN where? Where are you wanting to put it? Or are you talking about data entry on a screen?
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
