Subject: get datetime object

how to convert the string in this format ="Monday April, 3, 2006 10:34
AM" into a datetime object. When i use Date.parse, i lose the time on
it. when i use ParseDate.parsedate(d)
i get only a array. any help is appreciated.


E:\TradingTools\CODE>irb
irb(main):001:0> d="Monday April, 3, 2006 10:34 AM"
=> "Monday April, 3, 2006 10:34 AM"
irb(main):002:0> Date.parse(d)
=> #<Date: 4907657/2,0,2299161>

irb(main):004:0> pd=ParseDate.parsedate(d)
=> [2006, 4, 3, 10, 34, nil, nil, 1]
