Calculating the number of minutes in a DataColumn.Expression
Hi Experts.
I use an ODBC connection to a Lotus Notes DB. I can get the value fields from a view in a DataTable, but not the formula fields. Therefore I need to make a similar expressions in a column in the DataTable to have the same values. I use the DataColumn.Expression method. This works fine except for one column where I need to convert time to the number of minutes.
When I import from Lotus Notes the column displays the time as 01:25 or 1:25 (I checked that it is indeed a datatime column). What I need to do is convert the time to a number of minutes. Does someone know / have an expression to do this?
Best regards, Mark
