Minute Function — Microsoft.VisualBasic.DateAndTime

Synopsis

Minute(TimeValue)

TimeValue required; Date

Date variable or literal date

Return Value

An Integer between 0 and 59, representing the minute of the hour

Description

Extracts the minute component from a given date/time expression

If TimeValue is not a valid date/time expression, the function generates an exception. To prevent this, use the IsDate function to check the argument before calling the Minute function. If TimeValue contains Nothing, 0 is returned, so be careful here to check for Nothing.
