Need Help in pause & resume time calculation

[Jazz]

Hi Guys,

I am working on a database where i need to perform the below activities,

start->pause->resume->pauseagain->resumeagain->finish

Can anybody tell me how to do it.

I wanted to calculate the actual time from start to finish excluding the pause time.

Please help me.
Thanks in advance

Regards
Jazz

You probably need to have a hidden field to keep the temp start time. Also Make Field For Duration.

When start is clicked, both the real start and temp start fields are set to the start time.

Then, in the pause buttons on click even, say something like
Duration = duration + (Now ()-tempstart)

In the restart event, reset the tempstart value
