Here’s a test file that will show how to do this. It works, but you will have 
to modify it if the time span is 24 hrs or more.  Copy this into a text file 
and run it at the R>

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  CLEAR VAR vdatetime1, vdatetime2, vElapsed1, vElapsed2
  SET VAR vDateTime1 = (.#now - 85000) -- a little less than a day earlier
  SET VAR vDateTime2 = (.#now)                 -- than this datetime (24h = 
86,400 sec)
  SET VAR vElapsed1 = (.vDateTime2-.vDateTime1)
  SET VAR vElapsed2 = (RTIME(0,0,.vElapsed1))
  PAUSE 2 USING .vElapsed2
  RETURN
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
