Kevin,

An hour is 3600 seconds, a minute is 60 seconds .... oracle date addition is a pure number ... so you convert hours to number of seconds, add that to number of seconds for minutes. This will give you total number of seconds. Divide that by 86400 and add this result to sysdate (or whatever date).

Now where did I go wrong?
