Android Question Countdown Timer

[Jerome Elioses Quinonez]

I'm new to programing and to B4Android. I am trying to create an app that will let me insert the time into an EditText, display it on a Label and then start counting. How do I parse my result in EditText into Hours / Minutes using B4A? I would really appreciate any help!
