I'm confused, when you say "there are short time fields" do you mean a
field
containing values like 3:30pm, 4:00pm, 12:14am, etc? Or do you mean a
field
containing values of elapsed time like 1.20 secs, 5.50 hrs, etc. The
former
is formatted as date/time, the latter is a number. A summation of the
former
doesn't make sense, but the summation of the latter does.
