I need to write a formula to return the date between 8am and 8am the next day. So if in cell A1 I have 8/24/2018 7am it would return 8/23 but if I have 8/24/2018 9am it would return 8/24. Any suggestions?
 

Excel Facts

Test for Multiple Conditions in IF?
Use AND(test, test, test, test) or OR(test, test, test, ...) as the logical_test argument of IF.

Welcome to the Board!

Try this:
Code: 
=IF(A1-TRUNC(A1)>(8/24),TRUNC(A1),TRUNC(A1)-1)
The key to this is understand that Excel stores dates as numbers, specifically the number of days since 1/0/1900.
So time is just a fraction of one day. So 8:00 AM is equal to 8/24.
