Subject: Is there a time Version of DATEDIFF ?
Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2016 7:06 pm (GMT 5.5)
Just wondering if this is possible.
I'm trying to calculate the difference between two times (i've created the times in a REXX so I can format them any way I want)
Basically my data looks like this
I want to calculate the difference between the 2 times and create a file that contains the following :-
I.e. the difference between the end time and the start time
I can do what I want in excel or in the rexx, I'd rather not do it in the rexx as the job is going to run daily and there will be several 100,000 records to process and I don't want capacity & performance on my back about how much CPU my job is using !
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
