    Converting Elapsed Time to Minutes

    I need to convert start and end time into minutes. However I am having trouble getting it to work. What type of formula(s) can I use so that when I have 6:05pm in cell A1 and 1:08am in cell A2, I can get the number of minutes elapsed between 6:05pm-1:08am in cell A3?

    Hi, welcome to the forum

    IF your times are really times (and not text that looks like times), you can just subtract 1 from the other (late-early), then maybe format as needed. If your times are text, we need to convert them 1st

    Can you upload a small sample workbook?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools

    Re: Converting Elapsed Time to Minutes

    With just time and no date, wouldn't you need to check if start is greater than end?
    Maybe (with start in A2 and end in B2):
    =1440*IF(A2>B2,1+B2-A2,B2-A2)
