why DateTime.ToString("hh:mm:ss") give 12:00:00 rather than 00:00:

[Jason Chan]

DateTime mydate = new DateTime(2006,1,1,0,0,0);
string testStr = mydate.ToString("hh:mm:ss"); //return 12:00:00

mydate = new DateTime(2006,1,1,1,0,0)
testStr = mydate.ToString("hh:mm:ss"); //return 01:00:00

I want "00:00:00" instead of "12:00:00", what is going wrong?

Try upper case HH for 24-hour hours with leading 0. ("hh" is hours in
12-hour format)
