Hi
Both of the solutions above work within a 24 hour period, but some jobs
can
go over by a few days so I need it to show this in either hours or days
and
hours.
many thanks do far

Hi,

What do you want to see if it takes less than or equal to 12 hours? This
displays the text "In Time"

=IF((L1-C1)*24=12,"In Time",(L1-C1)-TIME(12,0,0))

format this cell with
[h]:mm

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

Hi
I would like to calcualte the time over a permitted amount and display
it in
a cell.

Column C is the start time dd/mm/yy hh:mm and Column L is the finish
time
dd/mm/yy hh:mm. The alloted time is 12 hours for the job and and need
column
M to show the amount of time used over the 12 hours.

Many Thanks.
