Variable Time Difference
Posted: Thu Sep 27, 2018 3:36 pm
I have a simple task for calculating the run time of a task.
Set a var with DateTime at the Start, set a different var with DateTime at the end.
Store the result from Time Difference in a Third var.
For some reason, the result is always 0. Any ideas?
*NOTE: This example doesn't have a pause, but I tested this with a 30 second pause"
