Hi,

 

Sorry for the off-topic posting

 

I want to find out the number of hours and minutes between two dates in
Oracle (don't want to use CF as I'm sure DB was be more efficient).

 

Can't quite work out the syntax.  Both dates have hours and minutes in them.

 

Eg

 

SELECT (departure_date - arrival_date)

FROM    DATES_TABLE

WHERE  PERSON = 3

 

This gives me a number llke 0.043837267 but I want to get that into hours
and minutes.  Can I do this in Oracle?

 

Thanks
