Return the time from a date and time

You can remove the date component from a date and time by using the MOD function.
This function will return the remainder after division.
The remainder after dividing a number by 1 will remove the integer part of the number.
There are some other formulas that could also be used.

	A
1	=TODAY() = Wednesday, November 13, 2024
2	=NOW() = Wednesday, November 13, 2024 19:58:05
3	=MOD(A2, 1) = 7:58:05 PM
4	=A2-INT(A2) = 7:58:05 PM
5	=TIME(HOUR(A2), MINUTE(A2), SECOND(A2)) = 7:58:05 PM

1 - Displays the current date. Custom format "dddd dd mmmm yyyy".
2 - Displays the current date and time. Custom format "dddd dd mmmm yyyy hh:mm:ss".
3 - Displays just the time from cell "A2".
4 - Displays just the time from cell "A2". This formula uses subtraction to remove the date integer.
5 - Displays just the time from cell "A2". This formula reconstructs a time using the individual components.
