I agree complete, but within Oasis montaj, is there there a function that
will give me the time difference?  Everything I read deals with channel
oriented math where one uses only channel values from a record to compute a
new channel for that record, but nowhere do I see how to access a channel on
record n-1 when computing a new channel on record n.  Am I missing something
here?

                David,

                take the 1st. difference of the of the time records and
divide it into the
                corresponding distances (distance/time = speed).
