>>Hi,

>>Say I store the value of time in a string (e.g. "20:01" for 8:01pm). In a report, I would like this time to be shown in an American format, am/pm. I can display this time using CTOT(cTimeString) but it also shows a date (the current date).
>>Is there a way to use CTOT() and make sure that the DATE part is not showing?
>>
>>TIA

>SET HOURS TO (m.nSetHours)
>Works excellent! Thank you very much. I will just need to put the above code into a function and call it on every row of the report, passing the value of the Time character.
