I really had a hard yet wonderful time with VFP when I was still a student then. After 2 years I still have lot to learn . Just wanna say thank u sir for ur help before .. One more thing ... I think the solution to my question before is to use Character data type for my Time In and Time Out Fields for easy manipulations right?

       CLEAR
       LOCAL lnTimeIn As String
       
       lnTime = ALLT(STR((VAL(SUBSTR(time(),1,2))-12)))+ SUBSTR(time(),3,6)
       ? "The Time Now is" +" " +lnTime


hehe "experience sure is superior than theories"
