RE: formulaes

Hi Paul

Thanks for getting in touch.

It does work easier with the date so it can understand the where the times are in relation to each other. If this isn't an option, use an IF function to bump up the time and decide which way round to subtract. Assuming start time is in A1 and end time is in B1:

=if(A1>B1,B1+1-A1,B1-A1)

To read more, there's a detailed explanation of all your possible time calculations on Microsoft's site:

Excel tip:

Trace Dependents / Precedents without the blue arrows

Rather than using the toolbar you can press CTRL+] which is the equivelent of trace dependants and CTRL+[ for precendants. Both of these ways though will not show the blue arrows but jump to the cell containing the formula.
