Time Calculations

In Exel 2003 I am trying to calculate the time difference between 2 cells. I
have the cells formatted as hh:mm. In A1 I entered 8:20, in B1 I entered
9:00. The calculation I entered in C1 is =(B1-A1) The result I get is 12:40
rather than just the 40 minutes.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.

For this example the format h:mm works for me.
