I'm trying to determine the date difference between two records. For example:

ID_____TYPE______TIME
1______START____1/22/2013 08:00:00AM
1______END______1/22/2013 08:10:00AM
2______START____1/22/2013 09:00:00AM
2______END______1/22/2013 09:20:00AM

RESULTS
ID____DIFF
1_____00:00:10
2_____00:00:20

Basically the difference between start and end time group by ID.

Thanks for the help in advance!

If the time column is datetime type, then:
SELECT
	id,
	CONVERT( VARCHAR(32),
		MAX(CASE WHEN TYPE = 'end' THEN TIME END)-
		MIN(CASE WHEN TYPE = 'start' THEN TIME END)
		,114)
FROM
	YourTable
GROUP BY
	id
