Converting text format of time/date into Excel time/date for subtr

YY san.

Hi,
I need some help on date. I have the date and time in text format.
13/01/2010 10:34 AM
13/01/2010 1:56 PM

I need a formula to convert them to excel date/time format so that I can do
subtraction between these dates.

Thank you very much,
YY

YY,

You could try and just use

=A3-A2

or, to be clearer in your formula,

=VALUE(A3)-VALUE(A2)

Hi!

Please help me with the formula and how to converte numeric time into words.

Example: employee knock in at 9:00 am and arrives at 8:45 am (and the answer is ontime) or if s/he came in 9:23 am ( answer is late)

Anathi,

Somethng like

=IF(B2>A2,"Late","On Time")

Where B2 has the actual arrival time, and A2 has the scheduled arrival time.
This will work if you enter times as AM and PM only, without dates.

Hi! Bernie

Im so pleased with help, I also tried to some other tricks
=IF(B3>=E3,"ontime", IF(B3<=E3,"late"))

although if E3 is 0:00 and B3 is 0:00 instead of showing 0:00 it says ontime.

Regards
Anathi
