Public ReadOnly Property TotalMilliseconds As Double

Property Value

Double

The total number of milliseconds represented by this instance.

Examples

The following example instantiates a TimeSpan object and displays the value of its TotalMilliseconds property.

// Define an interval of 1 day, 15+ hours.
TimeSpan interval = new TimeSpan(1, 15, 42, 45, 750); 
Console.WriteLine("Value of TimeSpan: {0}", interval);

Console.WriteLine("There are {0:N5} milliseconds, as follows:", interval.TotalMilliseconds);
long nMilliseconds = interval.Days * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 + 
                     interval.Hours *60 * 60 * 1000 + 
                     interval.Minutes * 60 * 1000 + 
                     interval.Seconds * 1000 + 
                     interval.Milliseconds;
Console.WriteLine("   Milliseconds:     {0,18:N0}", nMilliseconds);
Console.WriteLine("   Ticks:            {0,18:N0}", 
                  nMilliseconds * 10000 - interval.Ticks);

// The example displays the following output:
//       Value of TimeSpan: 1.15:42:45.7500000
//       There are 142,965,750.00000 milliseconds, as follows:
//          Milliseconds:            142,965,750
//          Ticks:                             0

// Define an interval of 1 day, 15+ hours.
let interval = TimeSpan(1, 15, 42, 45, 750) 
printfn $"Value of TimeSpan: {interval}" 

printfn $"There are {interval.TotalMilliseconds:N5} milliseconds, as follows:"
let nMilliseconds = int64 interval.Days * 24L * 60L * 60L * 1000L + 
                    int64 interval.Hours * 60L * 60L * 1000L + 
                    int64 interval.Minutes * 60L * 1000L + 
                    int64 interval.Seconds * 1000L + 
                    int64 interval.Milliseconds
printfn $"   Milliseconds:     {nMilliseconds,18:N0}" 
printfn $"   Ticks:            {nMilliseconds * 10000L - interval.Ticks,18:N0}"

// The example displays the following output:
//       Value of TimeSpan: 1.15:42:45.7500000
//       There are 142,965,750.00000 milliseconds, as follows:
//          Milliseconds:            142,965,750
//          Ticks:                             0

Option Strict On

   Public Sub Main()

      Console.WriteLine("There are {0:N5} milliseconds, as follows:", interval.TotalMilliseconds)

                                     interval.Seconds * 1000 + _
                                     interval.Milliseconds
      Console.WriteLine("   Milliseconds:     {0,18:N0}", nMilliseconds)
      Console.WriteLine("   Ticks:            {0,18:N0}", nMilliseconds * 10000 - interval.Ticks)

' The example displays the following output:
'       Value of TimeSpan: 1.15:42:45.7500000
'       There are 142,965,750.00000 milliseconds, as follows:

Remarks

This property converts the value of this instance from ticks to milliseconds. This number might include whole and fractional milliseconds.

The TotalMilliseconds property represents whole and fractional milliseconds, whereas the Milliseconds property represents whole milliseconds.
