Question

I’m using a DateTime variable and I get minute and hour values to my string variables like:

timeValue.Hour.ToString() + ":" +  timeValue.Minute.ToString() 

But when the values contain 0‘s (zero), they behave like integers and get cropped.

For example: If the time is 19:30, then my string is like 19:3. or when it’s like 06:00, the string is 6:0.

How can I correct this except creating a zero-detector algorythm?

Answer 1

Because Hour and Minute are integers!

timeValue.ToString("HH':'mm") 

will give you what you want

I have put the : between '' so that it’s always a : and it isn’t the locale-defined time separator (every nation can have a different time separator)
