Calculate Minutes elapset between two cells

[bazsil,73]

Lookikng for an easy way to calculate the minutes elapsed between two cells.

The minutes will elapse over different days.

A1 = 7/7/2009 7:00:00 AM
A2 = 8/8/2009 7:00:00 AM

A3 = (the function I need) (should be 1440)

I think your example is wrong, as there are way more than 1440 minutes in a 1
month span. Assuming you meant 7/8/2009 as second date:

=(A2-A1)*1440

1440 minutes/day = 24 hrs/day * 60 minutes/hr

=(A2-A1)*24*60 but the answer is 46080, not 1440. The dates are 32 days
apart, not 1 day.

You are correct in my mistake with the example....thanks.

I was having trouble getting the functions reslult to display properly but
when I formulated it as a "general" type cell it works perfect.

Thanks again.
