At one time there was a date calculation routine for REXX floating around. Sorry, don't remember the name.

Greetings, Would like a few suggestions for a small REXX program I'm writing. I would like to determine the date and time since a user is logged on. I can do a 'CP IND USER userid EXP' and get the CTIME as the number of days, hours, minutes and seconds that user is logged on, which is good, but I would like to determine the actual day, hour, minute and second. For example, right now my EXEC displays the following: xxxxxxx has been logged on for 1 day(s) 7 hour(s) 1 minute(s) 1 second(s). If it is, say 11:30:00 AM right now, I would like it to say additionally 'since Wednesday, September 22 at 4:28:59AM'. Gets a bit complicated, I guess, for year changes, leap years, etc... Also, I would like to determine the amount of time between the current time and a date in the future (our next scheduled VSE IPL, for example) I plan to do the same for the VM IPL time derived from the 'CP Q CPLEVEL' command. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
