Time interval to minutes as numeric value?

Hello,

I'm relatively new to QlikView, so perhaps this can be accomplished quite simple.

In script:

1. SET TimestampFormat='YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss';

2. I have the following simplified situation from a LOAD on a .CSV table:

LOAD

//...

Timestamp#(@2) AS Time1,  // 26-Jul-12 15:59:45

Timestamp#(@10) AS Time2,  // 26-Jul-12 15:56:36

Interval(Timestamp#(@2)-Timestamp#(@10), 'm') AS TimeDiff_Minutes,

...

FROM SomeTable.csv

This runs fine and when defining a f.e. table I get a correct visual representation (here 3) for TimeDiff_Minutes..

However, when trying to re-use TimeDiff_Minutes in some sort of script calculation, it reverts to the INTERNAL representation for this interval. 

How can I get to the 'formatted' result in a script in order to re-use it, without having to duplicate the algorithm so nicely present in Interval already?

Best,

  -Emile
