In Visual Basic Express 2008, how do I convert integer numbers into a hh:mm:ss format or mm:ss format, Thanks?

Question

I have an integer variable that reads 160 and i want it to display 2:40 or 0:02:40.. Either format works fine. I am a beginner at this, thank alot.

Answer 1

Check out the link in the source.

Answer 2

PRINT INT(num/60); ":"; num MOD 60

INT(num/60) takes the integer value of the number you are processing- it converts the seconds into minutes.

num MOD 60 takes the remainder seconds if you subtract all the whole minutes.

Answer 3

Dim intSeconds As Integer = 160

Dim nanoSecondTime As Long = CType(intSeconds, Long) * 10000000

Dim ts As New TimeSpan(nanoSecondTime)

Label1.Text = ts.ToString()

I just noticed there is a problem with massive_cube_of_legos answer.  If you have an integer that is more than a day (in seconds) it will give you 25 which I'm assuming is not what you want.
