Challenge #10: Date Time Calculations

Seems like my 'Input' and 'Output' files are not the same in terms of the times used for the calculation. But I checked my solution with the 'Output' file also and got the correct answer. I'm sure I'm not the only one who commented on this, however I have not read any of the other comments myself.

Missed the fact that times would vary slightly. I still ran two possible solutions which I believe are simple enough. Great challenge!

Solved - as previously noted by other users the times are 41 seconds off the output file since the Time_Now stamp is different between the input file and the output file.

I managed to achieve this this just one tool, though of course needed more than one formula!

A few discrepancies with the solution but double checked the numbers and I believe they are correct.
