My problem is not adding a time duration to a time field, the date Op Codes
make that easy. My problem is extracting it without having to use string
manipulation on each piece and then reassembling it into a date and time.
And yes I can do this, regardless if I make it a procedure or whatever, but
I would think that extracting a date or a time from a timestamp would be
a basic function.
