I am trying to enter time and date so that there will be a lapsed
time shown.
I would like the time to be shown in the format of mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss AM
or PM in a cell.
1st cell (B6) is current time =NOW() but this does not show seconds. (shows
8/13/09 18.52)
2nd cell (B7) is start time and have entered 8/1/2009 11:00:50 PM (formula
shows correct but when the cell is not clicked in it shows 8/1/2009 23:00)
3rd cell (B8) is end time and have entered 8/21/2009 11:00:58 PM (formula
shows correct but when the cell is not clicked in it shows 8/21/2009 23:00)
4th cell(B9) is Lapsed Time Current-Start entered =B6-B7 which gives value
11.82742604
5th cell(B10) is Lapsed time End - Start B8-B7 which gives a value of
20.00009259
Is there a way to adjust the formulas so that the date and time is in the
format of
mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss AM or PM in a cell. Also if the Now does not show
seconds is the calculation correct for seconds.




If you're looking for a solution, you need to do one of the following:
1. Keep the conversation in the same thread, or
2. If you start a new thread, then you need to a complete description of
your problem and the solution you want. No one can tell what you're looking
for from just this post.

Number one I am trying to enter time and date so that there will be a
lapsed
time shown.

The 1st choice is current time; Formula=NOW() the only problem is it does
not show seconds. Is there any way to add seconds to this?
have Current time cell, Start time cell, and an End time cell.
to show lapsed time Example Current minus Start and End minus Start.
In the format of either mm/dd/yyyy and hh:mm:ss AM or mm/dd/yyyy and
hh:mm:ss in military time.
