I have quite a few questions regarding the basics of subtracting time, so this probably will be an ongoing thread (if it needs to be in a different forum area, please advise).
Interface:
User is presented with a form so that they may log onto a position. They put in their initials, along with the time they sign on, as well as the time they sign off.
Problem:
We track our logs from 12 am - 11:59 pm local. If you have ever worked with zulu time, this can equal something like 22:00. So if the user logs on at 22:00 and logs off at 04:00 (even though it is the same day local time), and I try to subtract it, i get the invert, like 18:00 hours on position, not the true 6:00 hours on position.
I will provide an attachment as soon as I remove some sensative information. Thank you for your assitance.
