i typoed the above... it should be

.93338171 * 24 == 22.40116104 hours

> .4114104 * 60 == 24.696624 minutes

so this becomes

.40116104 * 60 == 24.0696624 minutes

which then leads to

.0696624 * 60 == 4.179744 seconds

ahhh... it took me a minute to find that errant '4' in there :lol: yeah, that 
could cause the problem but in this case, i dropped a '3' much earlier :/

so, i'm on the right track... just gotta use the right numbers... now to find 
the right formula ;)
