Calculating differences in time. PLs Help
I have a timesheet and I have a simple formula that calculates the diff
between 2 times and goes something like this: = (B4-A4)*24 Where B4 = 4:45 PM and A4 = 7:15 AM The result (formatted correctly) is 9.50 Hrs I can continue dong this row after row and eventually total it at the bottom and get something like 440.15 Hrs So what's my question? What happens if I want this formula modified so that the result can be expressed as something like : 9 Hours and 30 Minutes Can someone help? (Pls bear in mind that whatever the answer I still need to be able to go to the bottom of all the calculated differences and add up a total, so as to end up with a string like" 120 Hours and 35 Minutes " Any help would be greatly appreciated Many Thanks John - Sydney AUSTRALIA |

Calculating differences in time. PLs Help
When you applied:
= (B4-A4)*24 you converted the time differences into numbers scaled such that 1.1 means one and one tenth hours. Once you have added up a column of these (say in column C) with the sum in C100, then in another cell enter: =C100/24 and format this cell as Custom hhh:mm -- Gary's Student "Jester" wrote: I have a timesheet and I have a simple formula that calculates the diff between 2 times and goes something like this: = (B4-A4)*24 Where B4 = 4:45 PM and A4 = 7:15 AM The result (formatted correctly) is 9.50 Hrs I can continue dong this row after row and eventually total it at the bottom and get something like 440.15 Hrs So what's my question?

For the cell you want to change the result to 14 Hours and 30 minutes, change
the format to custom then type in at the top:- h "Hours and" mm "Minutes" which, if the cell states 440:15 before will display 440 Hours and 15 Minutes Hope that helps -- Dave "Jester" wrote: I have a timesheet and I have a simple formula that calculates the diff between 2 times and goes something like this: = (B4-A4)*24 Where B4 = 4:45 PM and A4 = 7:15 AM The result (formatted correctly) is 9.50 Hrs I can continue dong this row after row and eventually total it at the bottom and get something like 440.15 Hrs So what's my question?
