    Hi there

    A question from a newbie, hope some one could help me.

    I have a table with some date fields in among others.
    One field is called “Start production” and another is called “Stop production”
    I want to do a comparison between “Stop production” and “Start production” at the NEXT Next record! It is meant to get an msgBox with a warning if time between “Stop production” and “Start production” at next record exceed e.g. 5 minutes

    recID Start production Stop production

    1011 2007-10-01 15:33 2007-10-01 16:11
    1012 2007-10-01 16:12 2007-10-01 18:32
    1013 2007-10-01 18:41 2007-10-01 19:13
    1014 2007-10-01 19:14 2007-10-01 21:36

    I hope it is not too messy!

    Best Regards

    Gostap
