Hello there, 

Is it possible just to get the "time" for the toc in seconds (i.e. 23.105489) 
instead of the whole statement of  "Elapsed time is 23.105489 seconds".

I need to have the value of the elapsed time in excel sheet, unfortunately, 
excel sheet does not seem to read String/character.

Please advise.
