I feel really stupid because I have been reading every post on calculating
hours and trying the formulas but none get me what I want so sorry for this
easy post.

B2 = Start Time (8:00 AM)
C2 = End Time (12:30 PM)
D2 = Hours Worked

The one formula that gets me closest is: =(B2-C2)*24 however, I get -4.50
and I only want 4.50. I have tried changing to 1904 date system but that
didn't seem to do anything. Am I missing something? Thanks!!!!
