    Adding Time help

    I am creating a database that will be used to calculate the time spent with a tutor and then will be used to both pay the tutor and bill the student.

    My question is: Is there an expression that I can build into a form that will calculate the start time/end time and come up with a total time?



    for example: Start time: 3:30 End Time: 4:00 = Total time: 30 mins

    So far I am not having any success with this problem. Please help!

    1. store the date along with the time.

    2. Then you can use the DateDiff function to get the number of minutes and you can then convert to hours/minutes as needed.

    Bob, Don't know about Bozilla but I want to thank you for that info. I had put a project on hold for three months trying to figure the time in hours. This site has helped me more than all the articles and books I have read.
