I am trying to convert seconds into a string ("hh:nn:ss") I found one way below but when I tried to use Int and Mod functions, see bottom I return the Hours, Minutes and Seconds with two decimal places and cannot find out how to format the functions.

numbervar hours;
numbervar minutes;
numbervar secs;
numbervar wait;
wait:=Sum ({Time1)}, { Employee});
hours:=int(wait/3600);
minutes:=int((wait-(hours*3600))/60);
secs:=(wait-(hours*3600)-(minutes*60));
totext(hours,"00")+":"+totext(Minutes,"00")+":"+totext(secs,"00")

-------------------------------------

This returns '1.00:23.00:6.00' where {Time} = 4986
Int ({Time}/3600) & ":" & Int ({Time}/60) & ":" & ({Time} Mod 60)

Many thanks to anyone who reads this.

Or maybe you know a better way? Any help would be appreciated.
 
Try this, it works fine for me.

NumberVar TotalSec := {@Seconds};
NumberVar Hours := Truncate (Remainder ( TotalSec,86400) / 3600);
NumberVar Minutes := Truncate (Remainder ( TotalSec,3600) / 60);
NumberVar Seconds := Remainder ( TotalSec , 60);

Totext ( Hours, '00', 0,'') + ':'+
Totext ( Minutes,'00', 0,'') + ':'+
Totext ( Seconds,'00', 0,'')
