COnvert both to SAS Time Values, then subtract the two and the difference,
flag if difference is greater than 1800.

Hi,
   Time1 is a Character  variable with the format   29:22:41
   Time2  is a  Numeric   variable  with the format  32.55

   If the time1 is different from time2 by more than 0.5 hrs , I need to
flag them or identitfy them.

   Thanks for the help in advance.

   Suthakar
