Author Subtract one datetime from another

Hi all,

need to subtract one date from another to show how long a user was logger in
for.

i.e.

<%=(rsDriverLogin.Fields.Item("OFF_DATE").Value)%> minus
<%=(rsDriverLogin.Fields.Item("ON_DATE").Value)%>

The values in the sql OFF_DATE and ON_DATE fields are stored as

13/06/2006 19:01:28

Can either be done on the ASP page or in the db itself, doesn't matter
which.

Regards
Simon
