Hi,

How can I convert this:

String time = "01-Apr-08.12:38:04";

SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yy'.'hh:mm:ss ");

try {
Date date = dateFormat.parse(time);
} catch (ParseException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
                
}

I get the following:

java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "01-Apr-08.12:38:04"
	at java.text.DateFormat.parse(DateFormat.java:337)


Any ideas on how I can work around this?
