Here's a neat post on the Access Team Blog. It's a function you can use in your application to display elapsed time in a more "friendly" way. The units used and the precision applied are determined by the magnitude of the interval- take a look!

I didn’t just want to show the hours or even days elapsed, but something more in sync with the way I want the information given to me- specifically that when dates are closer to the current time they are represented more precisely and dates that are farther away are shown generically.
