Re: Inconsistent results when calculating "age" of db records

Ghislain, 

Im ignoring the -1. I assumed that for times when the timedelta is less than 1 day, that item is ignored. But maybe now? Would you mind elaborating on how to get find the hours ago a record was created from something like ( -1, 30319, 123000 )?

Thanks

Did you forget do take into account the days member of your timedelta ?

-1 day + 12 hours = 12 hours
