It seems to flap down and then across one frame jump back to the top instead of flapping up again

Works like a charm on Mac 10.4.11, Excel 2004. Does NOT work on Mac OS 10.5.8 Excel 2008. I tried everything suggested above (i.e., opt-command-T at the start of workbook, and command-= to refresh). The cell is either -00:00:00:03 or 23:59:59:06. My formula is =TCminus(B6;A6;24). In Excel 2004, I must use =TCminus(B6,A6,24). I tried that in 2008 – no go. I even tried Excel’s formula menu, which includes the TCminus function – no go. Please help! I have a cue sheet that needs finishing yesterday.

Does the formula have a limit? I am trying to add up a duration column (I don’t care about in and out, I have duration and need to keep track of on going totals). Right now I should have about 400hrs in total duration but the TCsum is just showing me a standard 01:27:36:03. I am working 25fps.
Any thoughts?

So close. Great tip to remove the : and ; from the input numbers. Applying the style converted 14624 to 00:01:46;24. But I’m still missing something. Trying to calculate between two columns with “=TCminus(C523;G523)” still scolds me about a formula error. It has to be something obvious or something in the sequencing of the procedure. What did you do to get it working exactly? Any help would save me from calculating 1100 lines of time code by hand.
