Well, You can combine all three values in hh:mm tt format and then cast it to Time or TimeSpan or DateTime.

This is code give you an Idea...

TimeSpan ts = new TimeSpan(05,55,00);
DateTime t = DateTime.Today.Add(ts);
string dsTime = date.ToString("hh:mm tt");

In database you will be needed a Time or string DataType for your field.

Also go through following link which will help you further in Date/Time conversion.

Solution 1

Convert them to a Time or DateTime object and store them in that format. You could also make use of Time Picker Ajax Extender Control[^].

Solution 2

Hi use following syntax for saving time value to database.

At database side :

SQL

CREATE TABLE Table1 ( Column1 time(7) )

And at code side :

C#

string time=ddlHour.selectedvalue+":"+ddlMinutes.selectedvalue+":00" + ddlAMPM.selectedvalue;

// insert into table1(Column1) values ('"+time+"')

you should pass above query as command in sql server.

That is a very bad idea. You should never store times or dates as strings.
