Parameters

The method has the following parameter:

S

Specifies the string to be converted. The method recognizes the time if the string has the "hh:mm:ss" format. Leading zeros, as well as the seconds part can be omitted. Both the 24-hour and 12-hour formats are supported. To indicate that the string represents time in the 12-hour format, use "AM", "PM", "am" or "pm".

If the source string does not represent valid time, StrToTime raises an exception.
