When formatting Dates in java I've usually used the java.text.SimpleDateFormat class which gives a lot of flexiblitity in choosing your format. You may want to refer to the java.util.Calendar object also. Note that Date formats are not synchronized.
Here's a simple program that prints the current time in two formats:
package example;
import java.util.Date;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;

public class WhosGotTheTime {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          // initially display hour:minute:second AM/PM
          SimpleDateFormat formatter =
new SimpleDateFormat("h:mm:ss a");
          Date now = new Date();
          System.out.println("At the tone, the time is "
          + formatter.format(now)
+ "\n...tone");
          // modify to display hour:minute:second:millisecond
          // AM/PM and General Time Zone
formatter.applyPattern("h:mm:ss.S a zzzz");
          System.out.println("\nAt the tone, the time is "
          + formatter.format(now)
+ "\n...tone");
