Default Countdowns


I am trying to do a countdown to show the number of days, hours and
minutes from now until a specific date. I can do this for the number
of days but am struggling with the hours and seconds so if someone
could help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi

=A1-NOW()
formatted as "d hh:mm"
where A1 contains the date(time).

But you have to refresh the formula manually (press F9). There exists no
built-in Timer event in Excel.
