Re: Calculate # of Hours between Start and Stop time
Sheena,
What is the business case? How do you want to use this information? There are several ways to solve this but what you do next is important to consider.
I suggest you create a Formula Duration field and set the units to hours.
Now you have an object where the length of time is part of the data. if you are going to use that to calculate another piece of information that also includes time then you are ready to go.
If you have multiple blocks of hours, add them together and then show them as total number of days, you do not have to worry about dividing it by 24. The same group of data used over a year might add up to months of elapsed time.
