Hello All
I want to display the "time elapsed" between two dates - in days, hours,
minutes and seconds.
If I do "select date1 - date2", the result is : 12.0194907
Is there a function that will turn the number of days into something more
legible? Ideally i'd like to do ;
"to_char(12.0194907,'DD:HH:MI:SS')" but obviously that won't work. Is
there a solution other than writing a complex function myself which will
have to * by 24, / by 60 and substr etc to get the different bits of the
number?
Please CC any replies directly to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks in advance,
Saj.
