Checking Row by Row in a report - vba

Question

With reference to this question,
Changing Row Colour according to condition
I got familiar with Conditional formatting. However I still face this problem.
I am using this code to convert time into Time in Minutes.
Dim TestString As String
TestString = Me.Duration
Dim TestArray() As String
TestArray = Split(TestString, ":")
Dim Hours As String
Dim Minutes As String
Dim Seconds As String
Dim HoursMinutes As Integer
Dim MinutesMinutes As Integer
Dim SecondsMinutes As Integer
Hours = TestArray(0)
Minutes = TestArray(1)
Seconds = TestArray(2)
HoursMinutes = CInt(TestArray(0)) * 60
MinutesMinutes = CInt(TestArray(1))
SecondsMinutes = CInt(TestArray(2)) / 60
Dim TimeInMinutes As Integer
TimeInMinutes = HoursMinutes + MinutesMinutes + SecondsMinutes
Me.Duration = TimeInMinutes
However, for some reason this is not working.
Have you any ideas how can I do this for seperate rows?
Thanks in advance
ADD:
I tried creating a field for Minutes, the problem is that they will get all the same number.

Answer 1

the below code has a String variable called dateTime which stores the current date and time in this format: 27/08/2013 10:55:52
The dateTime String is getting split into a Variant arr array
Split(dateTime, Chr(32))(1) returns the time 10:55:52 part of the dateTime variable
then Split(Split(dateTime, Chr(32))(1), ":") splits the time into 3 numbers using : (colon) as delimiter
So you end up with with arr holding # of hrs, # of minutes, # of seconds.
The CLng((arr(0) * 60) + arr(1) + (arr(2) / 60)) returns an Integer/Long representation of the calculated time value
Stick the below sub in a fresh module and run it
Sub Convert()
Dim dateTime As String
dateTime = now
Dim arr
arr = Split(Split(dateTime, Chr(32))(1), ":")
MsgBox "The time " & Split(dateTime, Chr(32))(1) & vbCrLf & _
" as Integer is equal to " & CLng((arr(0) * 60) + arr(1) + (arr(2) / 60))
End Sub
