Subject: Subtracting time fields
Date: 01 Nov 2002 17:05:26 -0500
Message-ID: <1036188325.6778.67.camel@oc> (raw)

Hello all,

I have two fields in my database access_time and release_time.....I
would like to calculate the "duration" between these two values, but
can't figure out what to do.  

I've tried something like this but it doesn't work:

select access_time, release_time, time(access_time) - time(release_time)
as duration from mastertbl limit 10

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kevin
