Time difference
To get negative time, use 1904 date system.
Select Tools, Options, click on calculation tab & put a tick in 1904 date system. Hope this helps. Jed "Brento" wrote in message ...

Hi
Note that this will throw any other dates you have entered on the sheet already, out by 4 years and 1 day because of the difference in the base reference date. If this is a problem for you, stick with 1900 date system but use =MOD(A1-B1,1) where A1 = 36:00:00 and B1 holds 48:00:00 -- Regards Roger Govier "Jed" wrote in message ...
