    Time Calculation in InfoPath 2013 need help with the formula

    I have a formula that I found online and I am not coder so I don't know if this is correct or not but I took the code and am getting errors right off the bat. Can someone look at this and tell me what's wrong with it?

    Here is the full string:

    =CONCATENATE(TEXT(HOUR([Finish Time]-[Arrival Time]),"#"),":",TEXT(MINUTE([Finish Time]-[Arrival Time]), "#")) 

    I have a date/time field called Arrival Time and one called Finish Time. I have a text field (according to the article) that I am trying to set the above formula as it's default value. I have also tried using a rule where Finish Time is not blank then run this formula. But the formula itself errors out starting with telling me that the brackets are not correct, I take out the brackets and then it goes to the work HOUR.

     

    I am working in a SP Online list and just need to do a finish time - start time. Not sure if it will always be within 24 hours but pretty sure it will, so I don't need to worry about that, unless there is an easy way to add this.

     

    Thank you.

    So - this formula is for a calculated list column. That is, the formula goes into a computed column type in SharePoint. Is that where you are putting it? Or are you putting this in an InfoPath formula?
