Hi
=now()-1 is going to subtract todays date by 1 but same time. How can I subtract the time as well, lets say 2hr minus? is that possible? Thank you.
 

Excel Facts

Pivot Table Drill Down
Double-click any number in a pivot table to create a new report showing all detail rows that make up that number
If what you are really looking for is yesterday's date without a time component, then use TODAY() instead of now, i.e.
=TODAY()-1

Like
=NOW()-(1+2/24)

Try
Code:
=NOW()-1.083333

Time in excel is part of a 24 hour day so 2/24=.08333333

Thank you all for the help. I got it. I thought I need another operation for the time. It does make sense now. Thank you.
