    Hello,

    Mathematical operations are different than the date-time operations.

    Please refer: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb862071.aspx

    Hope this helps,

    Hi,

    I have tested it in my environment and it is working. Just follow the same:

    1. Insert this formula: =TEXT([Created]-[Modified],"H:MM")
    2. For data type, select “Date and Time”
    3. For date and time format, select “Date and Time”
    4. Click OK

    Also check the log file if above steps don't work.
