Adding / Subtracting time values in Excel

Asked by TylerDerden in Microsoft Office Suite, Microsoft Access Database, Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

Tags: excel, time, subtract

I have  time values stored in the format.
Ex- 14:30 EST

I would like to perform two calculations:

First,  a simple calculation to subtract one hour to adjust for EDT.
Ex- 14:30 EDT - 1 = 13:30 EDT

Then I have an indicator field Daylight_Ind to use in an if statement to decide whether to add 4 hours to the EST time or 5 hours to the EDT time to calculate the correct GMT time, depending on whether daylight savings is in effect.
Ex- If(Daylight_Saving = true, EDT + 4, EST + 5)

Thank you in advance for assistance.
