Convert seconds to hhh:mm:ss in a chart

Question

I have a MsSql database which calculates the timespan between two dates in seconds. That works fine. I use this column afterwards in C# and write them in an array.

If you are trying to show more than 2 digits of hour I think this should work for you

//yourTimeSpan is the TimeSpan that you already have
var hoursDouble = Math.Floor(yourTimeSpan.TotalHours);
string hours;
string minutes;
string seconds;

//check hours
if(hoursDouble < 10)
{
    hours = string.Format("0{0}", hoursDouble);
}
else
{
    hours = hoursDouble.ToString();
}
//check minutes
if (yourTimeSpan.Minutes < 10)
{
    minutes = string.Format("0{0}", yourTimeSpan.Minutes);
}
else
{
    minutes = yourTimeSpan.Minutes.ToString();
}
//check seconds
if (yourTimeSpan.Seconds < 10)
{
    seconds = string.Format("0{0}", yourTimeSpan.Seconds);
}
else
{
    seconds = yourTimeSpan.Seconds.ToString();
}

string formattedSpan = String.Format("{0}:{1}:{2}", hours, minutes, seconds);

Update: I think this should solve the problem you were seeing with single digit numbers
