Help Please!!

HI all!!

Does anybody knows a function that will allow me to do the following
in a form:

StartTime StopTime TotalHours NO LUNCH(this is a Check Box)
8:00 03:00pm 07:00

The Problem is that if the employee check "NO LUNCH"; 30 minutes has
to be add it to Total Hours. In this case, if the employee check "NO
LUNCH" total hours will be 07:30. It seems very simple, but I don't
have any experience in Access2000. Also, If there is any function,
does the function will go into the click event or Afterupdate event???
Here is the Data/type of those fields?
startTime= Date/time
StopTime= Date/time
TotalHours= text
NOLUNCH= Yes/NO

Thanks in advanced.

In a query:
TotalHours:
DateDiff("n",[StartTime],DateAdd("n",Ab s([Check])*30,[EndTime]))/60

In an unbound control's Control Source:
=DateDiff("n",[StartTime],DateAdd("n",Ab s([Check])*30,[EndTime]))/60

Because a Yes/No field value is either -1 or 0, you can add either 0
or 30 minutes to the EndTime and divide by 60 minutes to get the
result in hours. The ABS() function makes the number a positive value.
