How to convert string into time format in asp.net

[sayli]

I have 00:01:00 in a string.
I want to convert it into time format.
How can i do this?

I assume that this represents 1 min. Either way split the string and convert to time. HTH.

im not sure if this is what you want

string s = "00:01:00";
DateTime d = DateTime.Parse(s);
Response.Write(d.ToShortTimeString());

this will return 12:01 AM

hmm...

I have something similar to this but in my case this will not work. I have a text field storing the value in mins in this format 000100 representing 1 min.

I need to break this into a time reference 00:01:00 so that I can use it to calculate total time spent.

I have tried several different date/time functions but they all add the date, which I do not need.

question is: is there a way to convert this text into a time only field ?

i.e. Duration time/duration
005005 ... 00:50:05
000905 ... 00:09:05
001500 ... 00:15:00

total 01:14:10

thanks for you help!

TimeSpan object.
(Note: They inter-twine very well with the DateTime object)
But you should be able to create a timespan object from a number of secods or minutes, or whatever
