How do I write a formula that will calculate negative time values, i.e., 5:00
- 4:55 = -5 ?
 
You coudl *cheat* and display the number as a regular number, and manipulate
the number to properly display minutes.

Setting the cell format to number, you could use this formula:
=("4:55"-"5:00")*1440
 
That worked Luke! Thank you for your help.
