2926.0. "CAL$END_TIME_CHECK Misbehaving" by NEMAIL::BYRNE (The Red Menace) Fri Jun 25 1993 20:31

    I am writing an application in which I must verify start and end times
    for employees.  Since the application is for a hospital, many employees
    work from 4:00pm until 12:00 midnight.  I am using the CAL$TIME_CHECK
    function for start time and the CAL$END_TIME_CHECK for the end time.
    It doesn't seem to work.  I even tried the above times (4:00pm until 
    12:00pm *or* 12:00am *or* 12:00) in the normal TM subsystem and it 
    doesn't work.
    
    I tried setting my calendar so that meetings/appointments are valid 
    any time of the day or night --- still no luck.
    
    What's the story?

        Hi Eileen,
        
        The two times you wish to evaluate are on different days. 
        Midnight is actually 0:00 of the next day.  The dsab is working as
        expected, 23:59 is the last minute of the day.
