How do I calculate the total elapsed minutes between these two entries?


1/8/08 4:45 PM

Will be making one or more entries per day in the above cell format.

Thanks.

Just subtract them:

=B1-A1

where B1 is the later date. Ensure that the cell with the formula in
is formatted as [hh]:mm using a Custom format.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Pete!

I knew it was something simple, but had the formatting wrong.
