    how to convert milliseconds into hours,minutes,seconds and milliseconds.

    i have two dates from that i have taken milli seconds using datediff.now i want to display total hours,minutes,sec,millisec in that milli seconds.

    For calculating the time difference, directly subtract two dates from each other as

    Thanks,

    declare @milli as int

    set @milli = 11202079

    select @milli/3600000 as hours,

    (@milli - ((@milli/3600000)*3600000))/60000 as minutes,

    (@milli - (((@milli)/60000)*60000)) /1000 as seconds,

    @milli-(((@milli)/1000)*1000) as milliseconds

    DECLARE @ms AS INTEGER

    SELECT @ms = 86399998

    SELECT CONVERT (CHAR(13), DATEADD (ms, @ms, '01/01/00'), 14)

    Obviously this would be the maximum number that it would show after this you would need to handle days - Remember that milliseconds are displayed and rounded to 1/300 of a second

    Going back to school

    declare @MILI bigint

    set @mili= 1*60*60*1000+2010

    select @mili

    ,@Mili/(1000*60*60) as Hour

    ,(@Mili%(1000*60*60))/(1000*60)as Minutes

    ,((@Mili%(1000*60*60))%(1000*60))/1000 as Seconds

    ,((@Mili%(1000*60*60))%(1000*60))%1000 as MiliSecs

    Heh... lemme ask why you want to do this? Is it for display purposes? If so, then the following will probably do with the understanding that this one only goes up to 24 hours... and there's no need to convert it to milliseconds...

    SELECT CONVERT(CHAR(12),@EndDate-@StartDate,114)

    If you need more than 24 hours, then the following will do...

    SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEDIFF(hh,0,@EndDate-@StartDate)) --Converts the hours

    +RIGHT(CONVERT(CHAR(8),@EndDate-@StartDate,108),6) --Converts mins & secs

    AS [HHHHH:MM:SS]

    ... but, I have to tell you, unless it's for output to a file, you shouldn't do this type of formatting in T-SQL... especially breaking it into separate columns. Certainly, you shouldn't store the data that way. If you need to store the difference in a table, store it as a DateTime datatype... that way, you can add them up later on and display the total either in a GUI or using one of the other conversion methods on this thread for the display.

    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    CONVERT(TIME,DATEADD (ms, @YOURMILLISECONDS, 0))

    This is sql 2k5, time is not available.

    If you by chance are using sql 2008...this works great for this format hh:mi:ss:mmm

    of course sql 2005 is more complicated

    select convert(char(12),(convert(time,Dateadd(ms,Duration,0),114))) as 'Duration (hh:mi:ss:mmm)'

    CONVERT(TIME,DATEADD (ms, @YOURMILLISECONDS, 0))

    You're a star SSC Rookie, completely overlooked the TIME data type.
