How would I calculate Time2-Time1? I'm using Acrobat Pro 7 and haven't been able to figure out how to do calculations using time fields. My department will be upgrading to Acrobat 8. Will that make any difference in calculating time?

Acrobat Forms uses a Date/Time object that represents the number of milliseconds since an epoch base date while LiveCycle Designer uses a separate date and time object.

You need to tell us which product you are using before we can answer your question.

I'm using Acrobat 7 prof. Before today I had not heard of LiveCycle Designer before today. Would using that make it easier to calculate?
