    Exclamation Im a java beginner and I need help :|

    Guyss can u help to my program??
    this is the instructions:

    DTR or Daily Time Record is a form which details each employee's total hours of work daily at the time of arrival and departure from office in the morning and in the afternoon.Employees must report on duty at exactly 08:00 AM in the morning until 12:00 NN. And in the afternoon, they must time-in at exactly 13:00 (1:00PM) until 17:00 (5:00PM).

    Create a program that will read the employee’s DTR from the textfile named EmployeeDTR.txt. Extract the contents of the textfile and calculate the number of hours work for each employee. Display the employee’s number of hours worked in hours in minutes. Display also the date of the DTR. Use military time format. Disregard the late & early in or out.

    Create the following methods that will help you solve the tasks:
    1. A method to calculate the number of hours worked from time in until time out in hours and minutes.
    2. A method to display your output

    You can also create additional methods such as:
    1. Methods used to read the contents of the text file

    Here is the text from notepad:


    Day:*Monday,*July 4, 2011
    Jamie_SULLIVAN*2006-0031*Worker*2*08:00*12:00*13:00*17:00
    John_SMITH*2001-0001*Manager*3*07:46*12:00*12:30*17:10
    Tim_JONES*2010-0008*Worker*1*08:01*11:55*13:00*16:55


    Here is a sample output:

    ----------------------------------------------------------------
    EMPLOYEE’s Daily Time Record
    Day: Monday, July 4, 2011

    Getting help is best done when you ask a question, or state exactly what the problem is. Does it compile? Are there exceptions? Does it misbehave (if so, what do you expect and what do you get)? And please read the forum guidelines, which explain how to wrap your code in the code tags to preserve formatting

    Read the forum rules. Posting duplicate posts is not allowed, and neither is posting photos that can be considered profane - this is a technical forum, treat it that way. Your other post has been deleted. Take this as a first warning, and there won't be a second one.

    I second copeg's questions. We really need a *description* of the problem to be able to help.

    And the place for a description (and the help it might result in) is here in the forum, rather than PMing individuals. I don't say this to be heavy handed about "rules", but just because I think the public forums are the most effective way of getting help.

    I look forward to seeing your answer's to copeg's questions!

    Other than having to fix your Am and Pm variables in the EmployeeProfile function, the problem seems to all be in the daily_hours_work function. That's where my IDE kept pointing to for noSuchElement exceptions in the StringTokenizer.
    If I comment out the call to daily_hours_work the program runs as expected, minus the total hours and minutes worked for the day.
