New to Excel - Time format problem!!!

Mar 13th, 2002, 03:18 PM

Being new to Excel, this problem might seem obvious to you experienced users, but I can,t seem to solve it!!!
I have a simple spreadsheet, with the cells formatted as time, to calculate daily time worked against a target - mainly to keep track of time worked on a flexi-time system. Problem is that occasionally I need the balance of hours worked daily to show a minus time, and it just won,t do this!!! Help????

Switch to the 1904 date system (see the Calculation tab via Tools|Options).
