Not sure what you mean by a template, but if you have a start time in A1 and
an end time in B1, then all you need in C1 is to subtract them:

C1: =B1-A1

If A1 and B1 are in Excel time format, then C1 will be too. If you want the
result in hours, then modify the formula to this:

=(B1-A1)*24

and format the cell as General or Number. If you want the elapsed time in
minutes, multiply by a further 60.

Hope this helps.
