I have a string list of time duration. which have two string-
"01:33:56:00","00:23:34:00"

When i adding this list value, i got exception-
The TimeSpan could not be parsed because at least one of the numeric components is out of range or contains too many digits.

I am using this-

Quote:

olst.TotleQcDuration = olst.Reports.Aggregate(TimeSpan.Zero, (subtotal, t) => subtotal.Add(TimeSpan.Parse(t.Duration))).ToString();

What I have tried:

C#

olst.TotleQcDuration = olst.Reports.Aggregate(TimeSpan.Zero, (subtotal, t) => subtotal.Add(TimeSpan.Parse(t.Duration))).ToString();

Where and how are these "001:33:56:00","00:23:34:00" stored?

Solution 1

Try-
"01:33:56:00" instead of "001:33:56:00"
That extra 0 can cause the problem.

Hope, it helps :)

Yes

Hi Mukesh,

Your first parameter is causing an overflow exception. The value after the first colon of "001:33:56:00" is an hour value and it must be less than 24 (yours is 33). Please correct it and trap it using Try-Catch:

C#

try
{
    olst.TotleQcDuration = olst.Reports.Aggregate(TimeSpan.Zero, (subtotal, t) => subtotal.Add(TimeSpan.Parse(t.Duration))).ToString();
}
catch (OverflowException)
{
    MessageBox.Show("A value in the string exceeds a legitimate value.");
}

Check this out TimeSpan.Parse Method (String) (System)[^], pay particular attention to the parameter format under Remarks

[ws][-]{ d | [d.]hh:mm[:ss[.ff]] }[ws]
