The Value from the DB is something like 60(long integer type to cater for longer values in future), I want to convert that value into a time format(HH:MM). I want to use it to give a total time in a readable format instead of something like 120, I would like it to display as 02:00
Hello Imran,
There is a function TextToTime() you can try it.

Hello,
If your output from the DB is in seconds you can simply create a new date time from a null date, increment the seconds to the date format it as you wish.
Eg.:
FormatDateTime(AddSeconds(NullDate(),120),"mm:ss")
DO

Will give it a go
Diogo is right. you can create a null date and add second and then format it . but you need to handle that second should not more than 86400 otherwise it would treat as next date
@Amol TextToTime() function only type cast the text to time

i use a foreach
with a custom server action build like this
This outputs as a Text which can then be formatted anyway an if you need to do a calculation just use your original long integer and rerun it though this custom action to return a text its better for visuals in text format and can also be added like a normal int
Sorry this is the action
If your issue is resolved, please mark the solution.
