Dear All,

Is there any possibility to show a time calculation in negative in Excel? Eg:
-4.10 hours.

Default Negative Time

Hi John

Use the 1904 date system.
ToolsOptionsCalculation and tick 1904 system

Beware though, if you have other data calculations set up as the base
date varies by 4 years and 1 day (I think!) from the 1900 date system.
