Calculating elapsed days and hours
or put the SAME formula in two cells, and format one as "dd" and the other as
"hh:mm"

=(C1-A1) +(D1-B1) and format cell as dd:hh:mm to give time as
days:hours:minutes
In your example, reslt would be 00:23:00
Does that help?

I figured out a formula for this but now I wonder if there would have been an
easier way.
Here's the situation. I had four separate cells - Admit Date (A1), Admit
Time (B1), Discharge Date (C1), Discharge time (D1).
I needed to calculate the number of days and the number of hours/minutes
spent in the hospital.
(If a person checked in on 8/1 at 3:00 pm and checked out on 8/2 at 2:00 pm
- it was NOT 1 day - it was 0 days, 23 hours.)
So here is my forumula. To calculate the number of days spent in the
hospital:
=IF(C2-A20,IF(D2B2,DATEDIF(A2, C2, "D"),IF(D2=B2,C2-A2,C2-A2-1)),0)
To calculate the number of hours/minutes spent:
=IF(D20,IF(B20,IF(D2B2,D2-B2,(D2-0)+(12-B2)),0),0)
Was there an easier way??
