Hi Dick,

i'm not using DB2.
But i found one module CEESECS and got one value.
I'm confusing whether this module (CEESECS) is showing difference in seconds or in milliseconds.

I do not know why you are confused - it specifically states that it converts a timestamp to seconds. And it is not showing a DIFFERENCE. A difference is one time subtracted from another. This just converts a time into seconds.

Just out of interest - WHY do you need the difference in milliseconds. Is it really relevant/important
