Here is a simple way to convert a LongInt value (number of seconds) into a time format:
vTime:=Time(Time string(46800)) ` vTime:=?13:00:00?
Please note that 86400 seconds is 24 hours. If you are converting a LongInt value that is larger than 86400, Time string will continue to add hours, minutes, and seconds. For example, Time string (86401) returns 24:00:01.
