Default How do I calculate hours worked on 3rd shift?

Direct subtraction should work if you tell Excel that the times are for
different dates:
In A1, A2:

9/11/05 11:00 PM
9/12/05 7:00 AM

In A3 put:
=A2-A1 and format as hh:mm and you will see:

8:00

How do you set up a calculation to compute hours when the shift goes from 11:
p.m. to 7: a.m. Normal calculations won't work in this case.
