Hi

Subtract the later from the earlier and format the result as either
[hh]
for hours or
d "days" h " hours"
as days and hours.

Many Thanks for that andy, i guess just by adding in mm "minutes" would
include the minutes in this calculation?

Many Thanks for both of your assistance.

Yes, just add the "minutes" bit to your custom format. Thanks for the
