Calculate the SUM of the Column which has Time DataType:

Question

I want to calculate the Sum of the Field which has Time DataType.

My Table is Below:

  TableA:

            TotalTime
          -------------
                


        

Answer 1

You could sum the total number of seconds, or datediff(second,0,datecolumn). You can format that as a time string with some math. For example, the total number of minutes is totalseconds / 60 % 60. For example:

select  cast(sum(datediff(second,0,dt))/3600 as varchar(12)) + ':' + 
        right('0' + cast(sum(datediff(second,0,dt))/60%60 as varchar(2)),2) +
        ':' + right('0' + cast(sum(datediff(second,0,dt))%60 as varchar(2)),2)
from    TestTable
