If you want 3 digits of fractional seconds, you would use 3u.

A format of

• %H:%M:%S%3u would give you: 23:24:00.343 (for example)
• %H:%M:%S%2u would give you  23:24:00.34 (for example).

Don't forget the ":" if you want them in the formatted string! All clear? 🙂

Hi altenbach...

Thank U very much....I am very grateful for your help.Now I using Scan From String to scan this time/date string and convert the string according to format string.Can it convert  into numeric data type?. I mean all parameter such as / and : in date/time value could display in numeric data type too...

Just convert it to a date/time record and use "unbundle by name" to pick all the parts you want. 🙂

(You only need to show the outputs you need)
