Hey,

I have a timer in my code-behind page like this:



Dim PageGeneratedTimer As Timer


.... < Code


lblPageStats.Text += vbCrLf & "Page generated in: 0." & Timer.ToString

Now, the Timer.ToString is like 10 digits long. How can I shorten this up in 3 digits? I can do it by putting the first 4 chars of the string, into another string, and write that one. But this doesn't includes the last chars, and .NET must have somesort of function to do it.

My question... How can I do this?

You can't use a rounding function because it will always round it to 0. The built in rounding function is Round()
