time problem

[yellow]

Hi all! I am quite new here. I met a time question:

step 1: set a time in hh:mm:ss format

step 2: add some minutes

step 3: separate the new time into hour , minute, second (3 variables)

Anyone know how? thanx!

Step 1:

Use this script:

$FormattiedTime=@HOUR&":"&@MIN&":"&@SEC

Step 2 and 3:

Use this script:

$NewTime=@MIN+5

Problem will be when the time is 58 and then you add 5 to it you will get 63, thats not a minute time, to fix that use this code:

$NewTime=@MIN+5
If $NewTime>59 Then
;if its more then 59
$hour=@HOUR+1
$minutes=$NewTime-($NewTime-59)
$seconds=@SEC
Else
;if time is lower then 59
$hour=@HOUR
$minutes=$NewTime
$seconds=@SEC
EndIf

Change the 5 in @MIN+5 to the minutes you want to add.

Thank you svennie! But I think there may be one more problem, if I add 63 minutes , the hour will not be right.

_DateAdd( 'n',15, _Nowcalc()) will be ok but I don't how to seperate the new data

( like 2005/11/23 10:09:23) to 3 variables , hour , minute and second.

Remove date from result by TRIMming from the position of the space between time and date.

StringSplit the new result into an array.

Assign the array elements to separate variables

#include <Date.au3>

$result = _DateAdd( 'n',15, _Nowcalc())
$result = StringTrimLeft($result, StringInStr($result," "))
$result = StringSplit($result,":")
If @error Then Exit;if stringSplit failed....
    
$hour = $result[1]
$minute = $result[2]
$second = $result[3]
MsgBox(4096,"Here",$hour & " : " & $minute & " : " & $second)
