1) No formula needed. Get the plan that was the version made on the day that you want to use as the reference date when the prokect plan was "as planned".
This would be the date on which you did, or should have, saved a Baseline, but if you didnt, you just need that version.
If you dont have that version saved, get the current version and strip all of the progress off it etc and work back to the "as planned" version on that reference date.
Then set a Status Date (Project, Project Information), which is probably today.
Show the Tracking Toolbar.
Then just select all tasks and hit the Update as scheduled button on the Tracking Toolbar.
2. The decimals are there because of the starting and finishing times, whatever calendars apply etc, and you are stuck with them.
3. MSP carries out calculations in minutes. Try ABS ([Finish variance])/480. 480 is the number of minutes in a day.
