Convert Time into Minutes 3

[ecugrad]

Need a little help. I need to convert a time string into minutes
Example 144:58:12 would equal 8698 minutes. I'm really not worried about the seconds.

Any help to get me started would be appreciated.

value = "144:58:12"
arrTime = Split(Value, ":")
minutes = arrTime(0) * 60 + arrTime(1)

Off the top of my head.

<%
function ToMinutes(strIn)
dim times 
Times = split(strIn,":")
ToMinutes = (Cint(Times(0) * 60)) + Cint(Times(1))
end function
%>

You can use the split function on the ":" then multiply the first element of the array * 60 and add the second element.

dim thisTime, timeArray, totalMins

thisTime = "144:58:12"
thisTimeArray = Split(thisTime, ":")
totalMins = (thisTimeArray(0) * 60) + thisTimeArray(1)

Response.Write(totalMins)
Response.End

<.
