In order to calculate time does it need to be milatary time or is there a
formula to calculate time as : 11:00 In
1:45 out
 
You can either input the values using military time standard, or use AM/PM.
How it "looks" is determined by how you format the cell. If you inputted the
values you correctly, you can do a simple:
=A2-A1
to calculate the time difference.
 
Time is time to Excel. It's formatting that changes what it looks like. But
formatting doesn't change the underlying value.

To subtract one time from another, it's simply:
=a2-a1

It doesn't matter how you enter the time -- the formula remains the same.
You can enter 11:00 or 11:00 am, 13:45 or 1:45 pm, whatever you prefer.

Fred
