Actually, this one ignores any values BUT the ones that end in "v". Again,
use Ctrl-Shift-Enter

=SUM(IF(RIGHT(E9:L9,1)="v",VALUE(SUBSTITUTE(E9:L9, "v","")),0))

I need to add the numbers with a label behind it. For instance in one row I
have 0.5S in Cell E9, 0.5S in Cell G9 and 0.5V in Cell J9 and 0.5V in Cell
L9. How do I get excel to know that Vacation time totals 1.0 and Sick time
total 1.0.

I can get this to calculate without the labels however, I need to differiate
sick from vacation time.

If this is not possible, do you have any other solution?
