That little script is taking advantage of some of awk's idiosyncrasies / default behaviour. It creates a 24 element array B by splitting the given string using the (default if ommitted: scriptwide) field separator (here: set to ","). In the print statement, the index is calculated by interpreting $2's (timestamp) contents up to the first non-digit char (":") as a number (default behaviour), and adding 1, mapping e.g. 00:xx:xx to index 1.

NAME
PX_timestamp2string -- Convert paradox timestamp into formated string
SYNOPSIS
#include <paradox.h>
char * PX_timestamp2string(pxdoc_t *pxdoc, double timestamp, const char *format)
DESCRIPTION
Creates a string representation of a paradox timestamp as specified in the parameter format. The timestamp must be either retrieved with
PX_get_data_double(3) after calling PX_get_record(3) or by simply using the double value in the pxval_t struct as returned by
PX_retrieve_record(3). A timestamp contains both time and date information. The format string contains chars which stand for certain values
of the date/time. The following table lists all available characters with a meaning. All other characters are being copied unmodified to
the output string. If a special character shall not be interpreted it must be preceded with a backslash.
