Re: simpledateformat

The desired output is being able to parse that string.

so if I do

SimpleDateFormat sdf = new
SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss z");

System.out.println(sdf.parse("08/01/2002 12:00:00
EST"));

Then I get "Thu Aug 01 13:00:00 EDT 2002"

What do I do to keep it in EST?

Thanks,
Prashant.
