Timestamp Manipulation.

  Following on from our RPG IV and V3Rxxx discussions, I've got a
  (kind of!) related question.

  How the !$%^@ do I calculate the duration between two timestamps?
  The best I can think of - laughable I know - is to keep doing ADDDUR
  1:*S until one timestamp equals the other.

  I feel sure that there's a more elegant solution, but my brain seems
  to flood each time I try and start the engine on this one.
