Need To Know How Long Your Process Ran?

This simple function returns the time a process takes to run, it needs just the
start and finish times as a notesdate time.

Function TimeTaken(StartTime as NotesdateTime, FinishTime as NotesDateTime) As
String
Dim diff As Long
Dim min As Integer, hr As Integer, sec As Integer
Dim sMin As String, sHr As String, sSec As String

diff = FinishTime.TimeDifference(StartTime)
min =Fix((diff/86400)*(60*24))
sec = Fix(Fraction ((diff/86400)*(60*24) ) * 60) ' done this cus min is
integer
hr = Fix((diff/86400)*(24))
sSec = Cstr(sec)
sMin = Cstr(min)
sHr = Cstr(hr)

If sec < 10 Then sSec = "0" & sec
If min < 10 Then sMin = "0" & min
If hr < 10 Then sHr = "0" & hr

If diff < 60 Then
TimeTaken = "00hrs 00mins "& sSec & "secs"
Elseif diff < 1000 Then
TimeTaken = "00hrs " & sMin & "mins " & sSec & "secs"
Else
TimeTaken = sHr & "hrs " & sMin & "mins " & sSec & "secs"
End If
End Function
