Struggling to work this out using the SDDateTime() functionality. How can I convert the total time in HMS to just minutes. SCDateTime can extract any part of the time but I need to convert a variable that could be HMS or just MS to Minutes only. As an example, if the variable returns 01:56:00 (HMS) what would the code be to convert that to Minutes only, resulting in: 116. Thanks in advance. |

If you already have an SCDateTime variable, for minutes you could use GetTimeInSeconds() / 60 Working with the SCDateTime Variables and Values: GetTimeInSeconds() int Minutes = dateTime.GetTimeInSeconds() / 60;
If you first need to construct the SCDateTime variable from HMS (or just MS) you could use the appropriate constructor. Working with the SCDateTime Variables and Values: SCDateTime() Constructors SCDateTime(int Hour, int Minute, int Second, int Millisecond); SCDateTime dateTime(H, M, S, 0);
