I'm sorry I did mix up the cells A24 is the in time and A23 is the out time but am I doing something wrong. using the formula below I don't understand why if cell A23 is 07:00 the results are 8.5 and just moving the the time 1 hour to 08:00 it results in 7.0 (1 and a half hour) Am I just confused or is something not right here. it seems that by moving just the hour it would only move the amount of hours in the results. thanks
