Thumbs up Answer: Subtract 12 hours from date/time

Hi Cindy,

To subtract 12 hours from a date/time cell, you can use the following formula:
  1. =IF(B1A1,B1-TIME(12,0,0),"")

Here's how it works:

1. The IF function checks if the date in B1 is greater than the date in A1. If it is, the formula subtracts 12 hours from the date/time in B1. If it's not, the formula returns an empty string ("").

2. The TIME function creates a time value of 12:00:00 AM (i.e. 12 hours) that can be subtracted from the date/time in B1.

3. The result is displayed in cell C1.

Make sure that the format of cell C1 is set to date/time format so that the result is displayed correctly.
