As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Gary, did you read Chuck's response at all?
You shouldn't have to mess with concatenation. The point of the
format string is to build the template for the entire output. 'AM' is
merely one possible element to put in the template, just as the year,
day, hour, etc. are possible elements.
Just as 'YYYY' in the format string will be replaced by the four-digit
year, and 'YY' will be replaced by the two-digit year, 'AM' will be
replaced by either 'AM' if the time is before noon, or 'PM' otherwise.
I'm not saying you can't use the format string to just extract the
AM/PM, but I just want to make it clear that there's nothing special
about 'AM' in the format string that would make it have to appear by
itself. It's just like 'MI' or 'MM' or 'DAY' or any other
substitution variable in the format string.
