Just to be clear, in the general case, you can add times to date/times. In the example spreadsheet the "End Date" column sometimes already included the time, even though it was hidden by the cell format -- thus the inconsistent results. Sam's solution is effective at removing redundant times from the calculation in this case.

The solution has to take out the date value and time value separately. Otherwise, it will give inconsistent results. Here's how the calculation should be. Also, formatting it to [h]:mm:ss will give an exact idea of the duration. =ROUNDDOWN(G6,0)+H6-ROUNDDOWN(E6,0)-F6 Regards, Sam Mathai Chacko On Sat, Jan 28, 2012 at 6:16 PM, Yahya Muhammad <yahya...@gmail.com> wrote: Dear Yasir Please find the solution in the attached file.
