I'm working with Dev Studio 7.7.03. I unable to find any documentation on converting a elapsed time field (serial number) in a format like HH:MM:SS. Also, the "HH" fields can be larger than 24 hours. In Excel you have a customized format [h]:mm:ss which does exactly what I need to do but I can't find anything in WebFocus to do such converstion. Please Help!This message has been edited.

Here are some ideas. This code example assumes your elapsed time is in seconds. Dividing the elapsed time by 86400 will give the number of complete elapsed days with function INT. Then using functions HINPUT and HADD in a technique posted earlier by Waz here, the remaining elapsed time can be calculated and presented in hh:mm:ss format. The number of elapsed days does not need to be subtracted from the total elapsed time before calculating the remaining elapsed time because use of format HHIS essentially ignores the passing days. For example, each time 86400 is added to the value of variable &ELPASED in the code below, ELAPSED_DAYS increments by 1, but ELAPSED_TIME does not change in the output.
-SET &ELAPSED = 86398 ;
-*
DEFINE FILE CAR
ELAPSED_DAYS/I5 WITH COUNTRY = INT(&ELAPSED / 86400);
NULL_TIME/HHIS WITH COUNTRY = HINPUT(1,'0',8,'HHIS');
ELAPSED_TIME/HHIS = HADD(NULL_TIME,'SECOND',&ELAPSED,8,'HHIS');
END
-*
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT ELAPSED_DAYS ELAPSED_TIME
WHERE RECORDLIMIT EQ 1 ;
END
