Problem in Coverting one Date Format to Other date Format

Hi,

I have a string like "2009-04-01 12:19:23.14+05:30" i want to convert this to "April 01, 2009 - 12:19 am",

i need to convert this string into some other date format, but i tried with following way, but it is giving exception,
is there any other way to covert this....

I tried in the following way but it is not working..

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd yyyy - hh:mm aaa");
SimpleDateFormat sourcesdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.sssz");

java.util.Date date = sourcesdf.parse("2009-04-01 12:19:23.14+05:30");
sdf.format(date)

is there any other way to convert this...

What is the error you are getting?

Try removing your colon in your timezone portion. I tried it and it's not what you will expect. The timezone is wrong. It's my timezone.

Hi Tsang,

Thanks for your reply. This value i am getting from database. So i am not suppose to change this by removing the colon. Instead of i am looking for a Date Format for this.

Hi,

If you want to get in the format of "Apr 01 2009 - 12:19 AM" then why don't you go for

it will give you the above output.

Thanks!!!
