Evelyn,

If the time difference is less than 24 hours this works well

set hours to 24
ltStart = datetime()
ltFinish = ltStart + rand() * 80000
? ttoc( {^2001-01-01} + ( ltFinish - ltStart ), 2 )

If it's greater than 24 hours you can use a modulo 86400 arithmetic to get the number of days.

>is there any function in foxpro that let's me compute the difference between 2 time? like 12:30AM - 7:30AM = 5 hrs 0 mins.
