I am pretty sure I have to format it then I can do what I want. I have to do aqConvert.DateTimeToFormatStr(timePeriod, "%c"), then I can get the string 8:40 AM, then I can split by space, then split by :
The methods you want are here:

Look for the colon ":" and everything before that position is your hours
The next two positions after the colon are your minutes
The next two positions after the minutes are AM or PM or whatever

You said in your first post that you have a string. If you don't actually have a string, then yes, you need to reformat it.
After that, you don't need to split anything.
Use Find to locate the : and it will give you the position of : in the string

From there, the two characters before that are the hours and the two characters after that are the minutes. Now you have the whole time ColonPosition-2 through ColonPosition+2
From your examples, it's not clear if you have a space before AM/PM or not.
If you do have a space, then AM/PM is at ColonPosition +4
If you do not have a space, then AM/PM is at ColonPosition +3
Yeah I guess that works too. I do have a string but Ican reformate it with the DateTimeToFormatStr so that I can a delimiter to use to parse the string which was the problem I had no delimiter. I think it's clear but thanks.
