I would like to have a time field which can be incremented or decremented or can be entered through key board which I can fill it up as hh:mm:ss  I don't want the user to delete the :, I'm doing the valildations in which I'm using Integer.parseInt(Str);
If the user deltes the : the next : comes in to my parseInt and it raises an NumberFormatException.  Isn't it nice to provide a feature which will disable a particular column on a JTextField.  Reply Excepted.
