Hi,

I'm trying to read the content of a TIME field with the method 
getTime(String, Calender).

The content of the field is "6:01" and I would like to read the number 
of milliseconds that
correspont to that time. It should be (6 x 60 + 1)  *  60  * 1000 = 
2166000 instead I get
18006000 which seems to correspont to 5 hours 1 min (5 x 60 + 1) *  60 * 
1000.

Since I live in GMT + 01 I figure out that this was due to the fact that 
my timezone is shifted
of one hour in respect to GMT.

I tried several workaround for this, including using the method 
getTime(String, Calender)
with the correct timezone info set, but nothing seems to work.

Has anybody any ideas about this?

Thanks in advance.

Fausto.
