Dear all 
I have a database form visitors stayed in one or more
departments during each visit.  I want to calculate
total length of stay during each visit. I need to
calculate something like those I calculated manually
under columns �Date came-Date went� and �total stay
each visit�. If Date came= Date went, then the stay
would be 0.5 and not zero.
Your help is really appreciated.
All the bests
