Synopsis

                  CreateTimeSpan(days, hours, minutes, seconds)

Creates a date/time object for adding to and subtracting from other date/time objects. The days parameter accepts an integer number of days in the range 0-32768. Here’s an example that creates a date/time object for one hour and thirty minutes and adds it to the current time:

<cfset CurrentTime = Now( )>
<cfset TimeToAdd = CreateTimeSpan(0,1,30,0)>
<cfset NewTime = CurrentTime + TimeToAdd>
   
<cfoutput>
Current Time: #TimeFormat(CurrentTime, 'hh:mm tt')#<br>
Time Span:  #TimeFormat(TimeToAdd, 'hh:mm')#<br>
Current Time + Time Span: #TimeFormat(NewTime, 'hh:mm tt')#
</cfoutput>
