Hi Gordon
I didn't find any more way to do my script with your function. I think i should
tell you some details about my script because may be I don't understand your
functions clearly.
1. I create an input box for students to fiel out their name, their class and
the amount of time (minute) to perform a test
2. Students should be given a hotkey to start their test. The script will
perform a schedule function according to their amount of time. When they're out
of time, the keyboard lock automatically
3. whenever students finished their test, they use a hotkey to lock their
keyboard. And i would like to calculate the time from their start time to that
point.
I did very well two steps, and now, if you have free time, please show me how
to do the lat step. I think your function can do it but don't know how to use
Thanks so much.

Hi
Here's a few functions I use to calculate how long until a particular time
is reached from the current time. Hope it's what you're looking for and
I'm sure you can amend it for your own needs.
int function SecondsSinceMidnight(string sText)
; Determine how many seconds have elapsed since midnight
var
int h
let sText = stringStripAllBlanks (sText)
; Get the hours and multiply them by 3600 ( 60 x 60)
let h = StringtoInt(StringSegment (sText, ":", 1)) * 3600
; Now add on the minutes
let h = h + StringtoInt(StringSegment (sText, ":", 2)) * 60
; and finally the seconds
let h = h + StringtoInt(StringSegment (sText, ":", 3))
return h
endfunction
int function SecondsToTarget(string sText)
; How long is it now until the target in seconds
var
int h
; Turn the current time into a time since midnight and remove that
from the input time
let h = SecondsSinceMidnight(sText) - SecondsSinceMidnight(SysGetTime
("HH:mm:ss"))
if (h < 0)
let h = 24 * 3600 + h
endif
return h
endfunction
string function GetTimeWords(int h,string sUnits)
; Show a time in words pluralising where appropriate.
var
string s
if (h == 0)
return ""
endif
let s = IntToString(h) + " " + sUnits
if (h > 1)
let s = s + "s"
endif
return s + " "
endfunction
string function TimeToTarget(string sTarget)
; How long to go until the target time is reached
; sTarget is in the form hh:mm:ss
Var
int h,
int m,
int s,
string sMsg
; Break the time down to hours, minutes and seconds
let h = SecondsToTarget(sTarget)
; Get the seconds off
let s = h % 60
; Now throw away the seconds
let h = h / 60
; Get the minutes
let m = h % 60
; Now throw away the minutes and leave the hours
let h = h / 60
; Now put this into words
let sMsg = StringTrimTrailingBlanks (GetTimeWords(h,"hour") +
GetTimeWords(m,"minute"))
if (sMsg != "") && (s > 0)
let sMsg = sMsg + " and "
endif
let sMsg = StringTrimTrailingBlanks(sMsg + GetTimeWords(s,"second"))
return sMsg
endfunction
Any questions please give me a shout.
