Hello,

I'm creating a timeclock and need to calculate total working time in the end of the days. This is what I came up
Code:
fhours = DATEDIFF("h",rs("clockIn"),rs("lunchOut"))
fmins = Right("0" & (DATEDIFF("n",rs("clockIn"),rs("lunchOut")) - DATEDIFF("h",rs("clockIn"),rs("lunchOut"))*60),2)
shours = DATEDIFF("h",rs("lunchIn"),rs("clockOut"))
smins = Right("0" & (DATEDIFF("n",rs("lunchIn"),rs("clockOut")) - DATEDIFF("h",rs("lunchIn"),rs("clockOut"))*60),2)
thours = cint(fhours) + cint(shours)
tmins = cint(fmins) + cint(smins)
if tmins > 60 then
  thour = tmins/60
  tmins = tmins - (thour*60)
  thours = thours + thour
end if
finalresult = thours&":"&Right("0" & (tmins),2)

Is there a better and shorter way to result this?

Thanks!
 
You could do both the DateDiff statements in minutes, add the minutes and only convert to hours when you want to display the answer.
Code:
fmins = DATEDIFF("n",rs("clockIn"),rs("lunchOut"))
smins = DATEDIFF("h",rs("lunchIn"),rs("clockOut"))
tmins = cint(fmins) + cint(smins)
finalresult= (tmins \ 60 & ":" & Right("00" & Cstr(tmins mod 60 ),2))
