Well, the error msg saying the syntax is invalid.
Thats it.

That syntax itself appears to be valid, so there are a couple of additional things to verify.
First, I believe the delimiter should be the same in both versions, i.e. "n"
However, it may be that in your version it could be the single quote, 'n'
That seems unlikely, but we ought to check every possibility.
The more likely problem, though is how it is used in the query. Can you open the query in SQL View and copy the entire SQL statement and paste it here?
- ToreSwedenJan 09, 2022Copper ContributorI just did find out that in the Swedish version the comma´s is exchanged to semicolon´s
Problem solved.
Thanks anyway.
Tore- George_HepworthJan 09, 2022Silver ContributorReally. I am not surprised it is different, but the semi-colon ; definitely does surprise me:
Minutes: DateDiff(;n;,[TimeIn],[TimeOut])- ToreSwedenJan 09, 2022Copper ContributorNo, its the comma´s, to be changed like: Minutes: DateDiff("n";[TimeIn];[TimeOut])
