First of all it is not 18:00PM. Miltary (24 hour time) does not use AM, PM.
If you want the hours between 7:00 and 18:00 to be day and the rest night,
and A1 contains the date and time, the it's simply

=IF(AND(MOD(A1,1)=VALUE("7:00"),MOD(A1,1)<=VALUE( "18:00")),"Day","Night")
or
=IF(AND(MOD(A1,1)=VALUE("7:00 AM"),MOD(A1,1)<=VALUE("6:00
PM")),"Day","Night")

I find that easy to understand
