This will subtract 5 minutes from the current time

TimeStamp(now() - 5 / (24*60))

(Today() contains the date only, now() contains the date and time - and there are 24 * 60 minutes per day)

I don't understand your question. Do you want to look for 5 minutes ago, or do you want to check when you last reloaded?

In table object consist ID's, Min(created_date) and Max(created_date)

if i want to check whether this ID  is updated in last 5 min or not..if this is not updated i want to show in red().

if(Max(created_date)<>  Max(created_date)-  5/(24*60) ,red())
