Time in HH:MM:SS format

sunnyksunnyk Member Posts: 280
Greetings,
How can we convert TIME into HH:MM:SS format. I mean if the Time is 5:45:23 AM then it should come as 05:45:23 and if the TIME is 5:45:23 PM then it should come as 17:45:23. Using DELCHAR i am able to delete AM and PM from TIME but how to add extra 0 if any of the hour/min/seconds are in Single Digit. We can have DATE2DMY to get Year, Month and Day from the Date. But, How can we do this for the TIME.

    Are you able to get the time in a variable of type Time?

    I read that you were able to remove the AM/PM part so you can do a evaluate with the other part link this:
    EVALUATE(Time2, '5:45:23');

    Then you can use the following format command:
    FORMAT(Time2, 0, '<Hours24,2><Filler Character,0>:<Minutes,2>:<Seconds,2>');

    Take a look to the FORMAT function.

    Go to C/AL Symbol Menuy -> System -> Variables -> Format -> press then F1 and read there also the HELP behind the Hyperlink (FORMAT property).

    There u will find examples like this:

    Time / Format / Example
    <Hours24>.<Minutes,2>.<Seconds,2> / 0 / 4.35.55
    <Hours24>.<Minutes,2>.<Seconds,2><Second dec.> / 1 / 4.35.55.553
    Do you make it right, it works too!

    Is it really faster to post a question than to Press F1? :whistle:

    Please and welcome.

    And don't forgett (and don't missunderstood me)
    .
    1. Use the brain ;-)
    2. use the help (step 1 must also be run :-) ) <- it's very powerfull
    3. search the forum <- if you doesn't found anything in the help
    4. create a question, if 1,2 and 3 doesn't bring you to your goal ;-)

    Regards

    Use the Evaluate Function it will simply convert the date or time to specific date or time format
    Ex. :- EVALUATE(RealDate,'19022018'); // For Any Date which you want to convert (19-Feb-2018)
    EVALUATE(RealTime,'142930'); // For Any Date which you want to convert (14:29:30)
