Hi,
I have different values of time in the format MM:SS. I am trying to figure out how to convert the values for time I have to numeric decimal. So for example, a time of 6:30 should be converted to 6.5.
Thanks in advance.
You can convert time values into number of hours by dividing time by the duration of an hour:
hours = time / '01:00:00't;
