Time in Words

mrigya

Hi All,

how can we convert Time into words like in decimal values
example:
19:00:00 into Ninteen Hours only.

With a lot of IF statements or CASE statements.

hours := FORMAT(TimeVariable, 0, '<Hours24>');
CASE hours OF
1: hoursText := 'One'
2: hoursText := 'Two'


And on down the line. Repeat for minutes and seconds. Combine your text at the end.

Hi Mrigya,

Have a look at the check printing report which converts the value to a text string with the value in words.

You can use Duration datatype to display "time" (which means duration) in form "5 hours 32 minutes 45 secods 5 milliseconds"... just try e.g.

DurationVariable := TimeVariable-0000T;
Message('%1 = %2',TimeVariable, DurationVariable);
