Hi Dmitry,

as I said I'm open for better solutions and when you think it's better 
with real timefields I have no negative arguments.
Just the current situation and Steffen's first solution aren't 
future-orientated.
Sorry for one silly, clearing question: is it possible to assign 
negative values in date/timefields (date/time before 1970) ?

Best Regards
David
