Hi Jean-Marc,

in the second function you pass the date and the hours and the minutes ( to which you converted the seconds before). So it returns the seconds up to the minute you indicate. It does not know that you want 40 seconds more

if you put

Code: Select all

 put 1308408180 into MySec1

the result will be equal

Kind regards

Bernd
