comparing times in excel
 

I have a list of start and end times. I need to weed out any hours that fall
between 8:00a and 17:00 (5:00p). I've tried several different formulas
without success so I'm hoping somebody can give me a formula to weed out
those hours. Here is a sample of the data I have:

a 11:04 14:26
b 17:16 18:52
c 16:11 17:00
d 21:37 21:39
e 7:12 7:16

In this data set, a and c are the lines that I want to give a value of 1
meaning it falls with regular work hours between 8:00a & 5:00p. Lines b, d
and e I want to give a value of 2 meaning it falls outside regular work hours.

Thanks!

Perhaps something like this:
=IF(OR(A2<TIMEVALUE("8:00"),B2TIMEVALUE("17:00"), 2,1)

Try:

=IF(AND(A1=TIME(8,0,0),B1<=TIME(17,0,0)),1,2)
