From: Luke M on 2 Jun 2010 10:59 XL can not display negative times/dates. You could "cheat" and do something like: =IF(B1<A1,"-","")&TEXT(B1-A1,"h:mm")&" hrs" -- Best Regards, Luke M "Radhakant Panigrahi" <rkp.gen(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:F183380F-E9B1-4253-93CA-6B6AB964BD52(a)microsoft.com... > Hi, > > i have the times in 12:00 PM in cel A1 and 9:30 AM in B1 and i just want > to > calculate the difference between B1-A1 which is -2.30 hrs, but in excel it > is > not coming only A1-B1 is coming which is +ve 2.30 hrs > > can anybody help me. > > regards, > radha
From: Roger Govier on 2 Jun 2010 11:11 Hi You can have negative times if you switch to the 1904 Date system, but beware of any other dates you may have on the sheet altering. Alternatively, if you can accept decimal times then =(A1-B1)*24 Format the cell as General. -- Regards Roger Govier "Radhakant Panigrahi" <rkp.gen(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:F183380F-E9B1-4253-93CA-6B6AB964BD52(a)microsoft.com... > Hi, > > i have the times in 12:00 PM in cel A1 and 9:30 AM in B1 and i just want > to > calculate the difference between B1-A1 which is -2.30 hrs, but in excel it > is > not coming only A1-B1 is coming which is +ve 2.30 hrs > > can anybody help me. > > regards, > radha > > __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus > signature database 5166 (20100602) __________ > > The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. > > http://www.eset.com > > > __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 5166 (20100602) __________ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.eset.com
