Question

I have a report in SSRS 2008 that pulls data from a table with a column, TotalTime that is an Integer value in seconds.

To display is as time I use this in the expression:

=Format(DateAdd("s", Fields!TotalTime.Value, "00:00:00"), "HH:mm:ss")

(got that from here: Display Seconds Count in HH:MM:SS format in SSRS 2008)

Now, when the value goes beyond 24 hrs it does kind of a “module” value. I mean this: if the value would be 29 hrs, instead of displaying 29:00:00 it will display 05:00:00. If the value if 51 hrs, it will display 03:00:00 (takes out 48 hrs).

How do I solve this?

Thanks!

There are 86,400 seconds in a day. So just use days if the seconds are greater than that:

=IIF(Fields!TotalTime.Value < 86400, 
    Format(DateAdd("s", Fields!TotalTime.Value, "00:00:00"), "HH:mm:ss"), 
    Floor(Fields!TotalTime.Value / 86400) & " days, " & Format(DateAdd("s", Fields!TotalTime.Value, "00:00:00"), "HH:mm:ss")
