select sysdate + 60/86400 from Dual;
shows how it is done: 60 seconds in a minute/86400 seconds in a day
I use + 86399/86400 a lot to make my end dates end at the end of the day
I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.

Mike, First, I expect great things from you/anyone who can get other people to do their work for them <smile>. Secondly, you are not "done for today" unless you get the FUNCTION you asked for. So, here you go:
create or replace function add_minute (date_in in date) return date is
begin
return date_in+(1/24/60);
end;
/
select to_char(sysdate,'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') now,
to_char(add_minute(sysdate),'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') future
from dual;
NOW FUTURE
