I was right about it not handling some dates, but was more complex than I 
though. Put in a date that was 1 second short of a year, and it was bad.

This seems to resolve the issue. Might have more rows than needed, Since 
sometimes it has the correct results before the final row.
Again, pasted formulas to text editor, and change " " to _ and \t to ;

Think this gets the job done as I see it, but it is a somewhat complex process.
Did the work at top of spreadsheet, but copied it a couple times, and then 
copied it to show formulas.

Pasted into text editor, and changed spaces to _ and \t to ;

Date_1;Date_2;Years;Month;Day;Hour;Minute;Second
04/11/1960_07:42:00;07/14/2018_12:58:15;"=YEAR(B21)-YEAR(A21);"=MO
NTH(B21)-MONTH(A21);"=DAY(B21)-DAY(A21);"=HOUR(B21)-HOUR(A21);
"=MINUTE(B21)-MINUTE(A21);"=SECOND(B21)-SECOND(A21)
;;"=IF(D21<1,C21-1,C21);"=IF(D21<0,D21+12,D21);;;;
;;"=IF(D21<1,C21-1,C21);"=IF(E21<0,D22-1,D22);"=IF(E21<0,DAY(B21),E21
);;;
;;"=C23;"=D23;"=IF(F21<0,E23-1,E23);"=IF(F21<0,F21+24,F21);;
;;"=C24;"=D24;"=E24;"=IF(G21<0,F24-1,F24);"=IF(G21<0,G21+60,G21);
;;"=C25;"=D25;"=E25;"=F25;"=IF(H21<0,G25-1,G25);"=IF(H21<0,H21+60,H2
1)

Has 8 columns, and calcs the differences in second row. Other rows adjust 
values if next column resulted in negative value. Probable would need a little 
more work, since if the top value is 0 or 1 in some cases might require further 
changes? Will have to look at it more, but would do most.

Hi,

just a quick question: if A1 holds 1.7.18. 15:30 and if A2 holds 
1.7.18. 22:20, why then

           =TEXT((A2-A1);"d:h:m")

returns 30:6:50 instead 0:6:50?

Assuming those dates are 7th January 2018, since your mail headers 
indicate you're using a US locale...

2018-01-07 15:30:00 is represented internally as 43107.645833
2018-01-07 22:20:00 is represented internally as 43107.930556

Subtracting those numbers gives 0.284723, which represents the 
date/time 1899-12-30 06:50:00

The day of month is 30, hence the 30 when that value is represented as 
d:h:m.



Ah, I get it -- and I don't. If I want 0.284723 to be represented as 
'd-h-m', why to treat it as date? Wouldn't it make sense to include a 
function to LO Calc that could convert that number in desired format in, 
just guessing, a text type.

So something like =TIMEPASSED(A1;"d:m:s:ms") or 
=TIMEPASSED(A1;"YEARS-MONTHS-DAYS-HOURS-MINUTES-SECONDS") to get 
0-0-0-6-50-0?

Seams not very complicated to add function like that...

Thanks,

Kruno
