Calculating work hours

Posted by John Buxton on January 03, 2001 7:03 AM

I'm trying to find out how I can Calculate hours worked.
eg:

Started Finished Hours
9.30 1.00 3.30 ( problem here is that when you add the column up it can give answers like 34.70 hours - I want to display the half hour as 30 minutes not as a percentage like .5
Your Help would be greatly appreciated.

To change the decimal hours total to hours and minutes:

=TRUNC(DecimalTime) & ":" & ROUND((DecimalTime-TRUNC(DecimalTime))*60,0)

Hi John

You might also be able to use =DecimalTime/24

Hi John

You might also be able to use =DecimalTime/24
and format your cell as Number>Custom>[h]:mm
