Hi,
I've a question about giving characters a value.
Let's say you have your schedule for work in your Excel sheet and there
are several shifts with different time spaces your boss uses to let you
work. These time spaces are used as characters.
For instance A is an 8 hour shift and B is a 6 hour shift, while C is
just a 2 hour shift.
Cell A1 = Monday, Cell A2 = A
B1 = Tuesday, B2 = B
C1 = Wednesday, C2 = C
D1 = Thursday, D2 = A
E1 = Friday, E2 = A
F1 = Total hours, F2 = sum A2..E2
How can I make sure F2 will tell me I would have worked 32 hours while
still using A, B and C insteas of 8, 4 and 2 ?
Thanks,
Partysquad
