The part to code the time stamp for both and the math code


Store the current time at login in a session variable:

Session("logintime")=Now

Calculate the elapsed time in seconds:

DateDiff("s",Session("logintime"),now)

When they log in, store the date/time in a session variable. When they log out, calculate the difference between the current and stored time, and then insert that into your database.
