then break it down to the lowest common denominator, seconds, minutes, and
recalculate the hours, seconds, and minutes. Then put in a sub-procedure in
a service program

You can't.
You get...
The total hours between the two date/time values.
The total minutes between the two values.
And
The total seconds between the two values.
Using your three opcodes.

So, for example, if the elapse time was 10 hours and 15 seconds you would
get:

10 hours
600 minutes
3615 seconds

Subject: Finding the Elapsed time between two date fields


I have two date fields *MDY with these values. '18:09:04' and '16:26:57'.
All I want to do is find the total elapsed time in hours,minutes and
seconds
between them.

I'm  using the SUBDUR like this;

EndTime    SUBDUR    StartTime    Hour:*H
EndTime    SUBDUR    StartTime    Minute:*MN
EndTime    SUBDUR    StartTime    Second:*S

Hour,Minute and second are part of a  6,0 data structure. When I put my
program in debug my 'elapsed' variable contains 010227. I suspect its
because of negatives I'm getting the minutes and seconds the way I am.

What am I missing here? (Should I be doing this differently then SUBDUR?)

Andy
