Converting DateTime To Currency

[Jamsos]

Hello, Developer friends,


I hope that you are well.


I have made some progress with my code and successfully converted the DateTime variable to a string that represents currency. My end goal is to create a clock that counts annual salary on a second-to-second basis.


I’m having some trouble adjusting the parameters. At the moment, my clock begins to count at 00:00:01 however I wish to adjust this to make sure the clock only displays a currency value between the hours of 9:00:00 and 17:00:00 for pragmatic purposes.


Are you able to offer any assistance? I have attached the Form.cs file to this email.


Esentially, I believe I need to change line 54 to represent a subtraction of DateTime HH and HH1 values but am unable to do so because it’s a string. Any help would be great.


Thank you.
