decimal to mm:ss

[Former Community Member]

I have done a whole bunch of searches. Seen lots of posts but doesn't help what i am trying to do. I have many drop down fields that will equal different number values(Seconds) At the end of the form I have a field where it uses formcalc to sum all the fields. I then want to convert that totaled decimal number to mm:ss format.

Hi,

that's quite simple:

var iSeconds = SummaryField ;replace with the name of your summary field
var iMin = Floor(iSeconds / 60)
var iSec = Mod(iSeconds, 60)
$ = Concat(Format("99",iMin), ":", Format("99",iSec)) ; display results in format mm:ss

Thanks!

I tried that however I'm not sure I'm applying it correctly. All the fields i have are numeric fields not time fields. Do I have to force a display pattern to my totaling numeric field?

To display the result you should use a text field instead.

That worked!

Do you have one if I decided to display HH:MM:SS?
