Please Help Calculate Time Between 2 different Dates
 

I've serched and found some answers, but I'm just not sure If I doning
correctly.

I'm trying to have the .xls calculate the amount of time the user was
connected.

I currently have the following:
D22 D23
16-Aug-06 7:30:00 PM (This is when the User Connected)
17-Aug-06 5:30:00 AM (This is when the user Disconnected)

My current formula is:
=(E23-E22+(E23<E22))*24 Which gives me 240:00:00

But I want to see that that user was connected for 10:00:00

What am I doing wrong?

You do not need to multiply by 24 in your formula.

Hope this helps.

With your sample data in A1:B2, try this formula in C2:
=((A2+B2)-(A1+B1))*24

If E22 contains both the date and time 8/16/2006 7:30 PM, and E23 contain
8/17/2006 5:30 AM, then all you need is this formula
=E23-E22

The formula you are using is for timesheets that allows for data to be
entered as time only (without the date). It multiplies by 24 to get a
decimal answer (10.25 instead of 10:15).

If I don't multiply by 24 and only use (E23-E22) then the answer I get is:
################
So that didn't work.

Actually I just went in and formated the cell as a number instead of time and
it works just fine.

E22 and E23 probably only contain time without the dates. You are getting a
negative value when you subtract 5:30 AM from 7:30 PM. In your example you
listed the dates with the times so I assumed they were together. I geuss
your table might look like this

D E
22 8/16/06 7:30 PM
23 8/17/06 5:30 AM

In which case you can use
=D23+E23-D22-E22

If the user won't be connected for more than 24 hours then you can use the
original formula (without the *24), otherwise you will need this one.
