Hi Jerry
you don't mention how Cur_Time & Last_Time are defined.
By any chance are they time formats, and therefore may contain micro
seconds, with the difference between the being something like 59 minutes
50.999 seconds. In which case, its doing things correctly
Just a wild stab

The infocenter states the following for %Diff:

"The result is rounded down, with any remainder discarded. For example,
61
minutes is equal to 1 hour, and 59 minutes is equal to 0 hours."

I have the following statement in a program where cur_time is 12:38:15
and
last_time is 11:38:15.


C IF %Diff(Cur_Time:Last_Time:*Minutes) >

60

Using the interpretation from the infocenter cited above, does that mean
that the %Diff would be 1 *Hour instead of 60 *Minutes?

The reason I ask is that for some reason the code that should execute
never does and therefore there must be something wrong with that
condition
as coded (and I don't know how to or if I can view the value of %Diff).
Could it be that the compiler is rounding up to 1 hour and therefore
minutes is never greater than 60? Or (in other words) is >60 a valid
value
for use with *Minutes?

Comments?
