Thanks Jim for that.

It's a nice stack indeed, but didn't help me that much :-(

I'm doing some calculation from  lists of events coming from a Calendar,
and one thing is to add sets of durations of events....

Well,
I know I could do my own conversion from seconds to hours and minutes,
but.....

Any clue with the convert command ?
