[RESOLVED] Convert Hours Mintues and seconds into decimal

If I have 5:32:43 (5 hours 32 Minutes and 43 Seconds) is there a function to turn this into decimal (5.5453)

Thanks

That just seems to put it in the format 5:32:43? Is there a way to make it change it to decimal?

.5453 is the decimal fraction equilivalent of :32:43?

Code:

---

Value = CDbl(CDate("5:32:43")) * 24

---

Value will be 5.54527777777778

yes it is

THank you CVMichael thats what I was looking for

Ah... I was slow on that... you already did

Just a note:

The Date data type is actually stored as a double, so the previous you can even do as:

Code:

---

Value = #5:32:43# * 24

---

If you want to add a day (for example) to the date, you can do:

Code:

---

Tomorow = Date + 1

---

To add a todays date to a time value:

Code:

---

TodaysDateAndTime = Date + #5:32:43#

---

To find out how many days are between 2 dates:

Code:

---

Days = #2/1/2006# - #2/20/2006#

---

Etc.

So, since it's stored as a double, you can do mathematical calculations with it...
where
1 is one day
1 / 24 = 4.16666666666667E-02 is one hour
1 / 24 / 60 = 6.94444444444444E-04 is one minute
and finally
1 / 24 / 60 / 60 = 1.15740740740741E-05 is one second

So if you want to add one second to a time: #5:32:43#
You do

Code:

---

Debug.Print #5:32:43# + 1.15740740740741E-05

Returns: 5:32:44 AM

I know, I know... more than you asked for... sorry...

But it's good to know
