how do you calculate total time for attempted tests?

I'm writing a utility that reads in the list report information and creates a more specific report to our needs, and when i am calculating the total time for passed tests, the numbers do not match up... If i create a status report, filtered for all the passed tests only (171 test cases) the 'total time for attempted tests' is 113:08. If i create a list report with the same filter for passed tests only, i still get 171 tests, but when i total up the 'actual hours' column, i get 111:18 (4 days, 15 hours, 18 minutes).

Thanks.

Is one (or more) of the test cases missing a entry for actual hours? The status report will use the hours expected value if there is no actual hours entry and a test case is marked as attempted.

that was it... there were 3 test cases that had passed, but had no actual duration, totaling the time my numbers were off by. Thanks!
