Elapsed Time in workdays (M-F, 8-5)?



I really need to compute elapsed time using Access and VBA. I have two
date/time Access table fields, one for Start and one for Finish. I am
trying to calculate net workday work hours. If a trouble ticket is not
resolved (Finish) on the same day, I need to calculate how many 8a-5p
Mon-Fri workday hours elapsed. HELP, please!

Breaking it down,
1. return the number of whole workdays between the start and finish
dates.
2. multiply that by the length of the workday.
3. get the difference in hours between the start and the end of the
end of the workday.
4. get the difference in hours between the finish and the start of
that workday.
5. Add result from #2 to #3 to #4 and there you go.

Getting the number of workdays between the two dates:

Below is a good elapsed time function I found. However, I'd like to return total seconds instead of broken down into days, hours, minutes & seconds. In other words, I want "125" instead of "2 minutes 5 seconds". Any ideas? Thanks very much! function calcElapsedTime($time) { // calculate elapsed time (in seconds!) $diff = time()-$time;

I've a requirement to find the elapsed time between two function calls. I need to find the time elapsed accurate to 1 millisecond. The problem I'm facing right now is that, I'm using the 'time()' function call for the purpose and regardless of how many time I invoke the function within my program, I get the same output!!! For better clarity consider the code snippet below. ... start_time = time(NULL);

Most of the discussions I've seen about elapsed time have, thus far, involved at least two date/time fields. I am trying to calculate time elapsed from one field across multiple records. The field is a timestamp field. How can I calculate the time elapsed from one timestamp to the next?

I'm trying to measure user input time with my Timer class object. It isn't as easy as I expected. When using std::cin between timer start and stop, I get zero elapsed time. For some unknown reason, the clock seems to stop ticking during execution of std::cin. Here's my code: #include <ctime> #include <iostream> #include <string>

I'm a newbie at this, and have searched a lot but can't find something that seems appropriate for measuring a recurring elapsed time. Creating an object with: var mydate = new Date(); seems clear, as is creating a second: nowTime = new Date(); and getting a difference between the two. My quesiton is what if you have many, maybe thousands of intervals you wish to measure? Should I do: nowTime = new Date(); with every pass of a...

Hi, I get the elapsed time from sys.dm_exec_query_stats table for each SQL query that I run in MSSQL. I see that the elapsed time for some of the SQL queries are shown as 0 while oracle performance statistics data show some time for the same query. I believe MSSQL can't take 0 microseconds to execute a query. Should I need to force MSSQL to monitor the lesser time taking queries? I also used "SET STATISTICS TIME ON", I get 0 elapsed...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
