I would like to get only the current system time in a cell, not the date and time information, as this messes up a calculation i’m performing on the ‘system time cell’ and another cell, with a fixed starting time in it.

What I am trying to do is calculate the amount of time that has passed between the fixed starting time and the current system time, and output the value as decimal (in hours). Thanks a lot in advance!
