Time durations in excel and VB
 

I'm using VBA for excel. A formula in a cell calculates the timespan between
two date/times in minutes. I need to extract this number from excel into VB,
but it always converts the number to the date/time serial number! any help
appreciated - this should be easy!

Time durations in excel and VB
 

Time is held in Excel as a fractional part of 1 day. So if you declare a
variable as Double, you should be able to get it quite easily as a number

Dim myNum As Double
myNum = Range("D1").Value
MsgBox myNum
