Use the DATE datatype. Difference can be calculated by subtracting values; you'll, though, get number of days so you'll have to recalculate them into hours and minutes (if you don't know how to do that, do the search by yourself).

2. USING FORM, When I enter data in MTR_END_RD field last reading then auto difference of start reading (MTR_START_RD) store in MPKM_USE killometer useing field. How its posible

Another simple subtracting; MPKM_USE = MTR_END_RD - MTR_START_RD.

You could store value of the current record into a global variable which would then be used in the next record (see how WHEN-CREATE-RECORD and WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE triggers behave). You'd have to initialize the global variable at the very beginning (check WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE and PRE-FORM triggers) because otherwise - for the first record - global variable's value would be unknown. Search Forms Online Help System for "global variables" and read all related topics.

And - please, do not type the whole message using capital letters.
