fscanf to read hour format

Is there a way to read a HH:MM format from a file using fscanf(), and treat it like an int? The file has this format : 

3 14:50 20.10

Is it possible to do something like fscanf(fp, "%d ... %f, &a, &b, &c); and b will have 1450?

I'm afraid you can't do this in a line. However, you can:

fscanf(fp, "%d %d:%d %f", &a, &b1, &b2, &c);
b = b1 * 100 + ((b1 > 0) * 2 - 1) * b2; // in case b1, b2 are the different sign.
