JFormattedTextField to edit TIME only, how?

you need only a normal TextField ...

Then you need a SimpleDateFormat-object (java.text.SimpleDateFormat)

create a new object like this

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm");

then you can call the setText-method of the TextField.

like this

textField.setText(sdf.format(new Date()));

Hm ... you need a inputfield for users to type a date?

Thats easy too.

Try this :

JSpinner timeSpinner = new JSpinner(new SpinnerDateModel(new Date(), null, null, Calendar.Hour));

timeSpinner.setEditor(new JSpinner.DateEditor(timeSpinner, "HH:mm' clock'"));

Here you got a JSpinner and it works really good. Try to spin with the different values ...

By the way ... you can edit the SimpleDateFormat-pattern as you like...

Read the api of SimpleDateFormat. So you can easy make your date-style.
