Syntax

Description
The SECS() function returns the number of seconds since midnight. The optional <time-string>, in the format HH:MM:SS, may be used to specify a time. If no <time-string> is passed, the SECS() function uses the current time. This function can be used to store time as seconds in a numeric field. The TSTRING() function is used to convert the seconds back to a time-string. If SET CLIPPER is ON, the SECS() function behaves like the SECONDS() function.
Example
? secs("10:10:10") 36610 // Another Example use accounts replace seconds with secs(time()) ? seconds 39306 ? tstring(seconds) 10:55:00
Products
Recital, Recital Server
