In a new worksheet into which I have copied formulas & number formats from
previous worksheets, the formulas in the new worksheet are not working
correctly. The formulas are for subtraction in one and conversions in the
other column. How can this be fixed?

Pretty hard to tell since you don't say what "not working correctly"
means to you.

Are you getting an error? Incorrect results? A crash?

Perhaps if you replied with example(s) of your formulae, their inputs,
and what you expect, it would be easier to give a definitive answer.

The data are times. For example, cell A1 is 9:00 and cell B1 is 12:00. Cell
C1 contains the formula B1-A1, and this is where the calcuation is not
right...instead of returning 3 hours, it would return something like 1 hour.
Also, cell D1 is a convert function for converting hours to minutes, and the
formula is =convert(c1,"hr","mn). Therefore, the subtraction and convert
formulas are not working for this worksheet, even though they do work
properly for other worksheets in the file.

Thanks

Tools/ Options/ Calculation: set it to Automatic, not Manual.
