Default Adding up hours and minutes

Thank you David (sorry for the late reply!)

It won't be 10.30, it will be 10:30. There is a difference between a colon
and a decimal point.
If you want to turn it to decimal hours, multiply by 24 and format as
general or number instead of time.

I have been reading the answers to hour/minute type questions but
can't seem to find the answer I need...

I am trying to calculate total hours worked in during a night shift
like this:

A1 = 02/05/10 8:30 PM
B1 = 2/06/10 7:00 AM
C1 = B1-A1 = 10.30

I would like the 10.30 to appear as 10.5 instead.

Could anyone help me with this?

Use a custom format for the total cell:

[h]:mm

will stop hours above 25 being treated as days.

The same can be accomplished by choosing the format "37:30:55" from
the list provided under Format | Cells | Number (tab) | Time.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
I need to add up a list of hour and minutes, the only problem being
is that Excel treats them as TIME not hours and minutes.

For example, if I sum 7:24, 7:24 , 7:24, 7:24 [ where 7 = hours and
24 = minutes ] then Excel five me an answer of 05:36 rather than
29.36 - any ideas how I get this working ?

Thanks
