Question

I want to remove the seconds from timespan using c#

My code is here:

TimeSpan lateaftertime = new TimeSpan();
lateaftertime =  lateafter - Convert.ToDateTime(intime) ;

It returns the value 00:10:00

But i want the below output :00:10 only not seconds field :00.

Answer 1

Well you can simply do as

string.Format("{0}:{1}", ts.Hours,ts.Minutes) // it would display 2:5

EDIT

to get it properly formatted use

string.Format("{0:00}:{1:00}", ts.Hours,ts.Minutes) // it should display 02:05
