I have a column (time) as varchar2(8) and it stores time in military format. ie. 08001700. The first 4 digits are the start time and the last four are the ending time. In my report I want the time to display like this 08:00-05:00pm. I know to_date should be the method but I have not been successful in formatting it properly. Thanks for the help.
