would the values you're looking for basically be that same as making the second object a child of the first? You can use the XSIMath.MapObjectOrientationToObjectSpace

Bernard,
I'm afraid Nicholas' solution is wrong.
To find a true delta rotation you must multiply quaternions as Martin
suggested, not subtract them.
However, it also looks to me like there is a small typo in Martin's
solution and it should be:
startQuat.InvertInPlace()
^^^^^^^^^
deltaQuat.Mul(endQuat,startQuat)
Cheers!

All right thanks everyone, I'll see what I can from there.
