time difference

[yahve]

Hi,

I'm writing an HTA and using VBScript to calculate the time the window stays open. I'm using the DateDiff function to get the elapsed time. What I'm looking for is help in formating the output of DateDiff in something like hh:mm:ss.

Any suggestion?

Thanks.

Isn't it something as simple as
FormatDateTime(Date, 3)
or
FormatDateTime(Date, 4)

Hi,

Thanks, I tried and it did NOT work. The 2 times I'm comparing in seconds are one variable and one is Now().

Bye.

U could USE JavaScript... cuz in VBScript u have to implement your own FormatDateTime function

Hi,

I've figured it out, it works using:

...
starttime = Now()
starttime = CDate(latime)
...
endtime = Now()
endtime = CDate(endtime)
elapse = endtime - starttime
elapse = CDate(elapse)
...

Thanks.
