My code is here :

i want to get the result of lateaftertime always positive.. please help me..

Answer 1

You can use lateaftertime.Duration() to get a non-negative span.

Answer 2

You could use Math.Abs():

        lateaftertime = new TimeSpan(Math.Abs(lateaftertime.Ticks)); 

User V4Vendetta made the right call in a comment though. Use the TimeSpan.Duration property, it always returns the absolute value.
