To get the ending time, which will need to be converted to a 24 hour
clock, you can:
   setvar ampm word(file_record,,-1)
   setvar hour decimal(word(file_record,,-2))
   if ampm = "PM" then
      setvar hour hour+12
   endif

Changing from AM/PM to the 24 hour clock isn't quite that simple. You also
have to treat 12 as a special case

12:30 PM is 30 minutes afternoon and remains 12:30 in the 24 Hour system
12:30 AM is 30 minutes midnight and should be converted to 00:30

12 PM should convert to 12 and 12 AM should convert to 00.
