Default Is there something like an "If, then" formula?

Yeah,

=MAX(total_hours,40)

but don't use the result of this in the overtime calculation <vbg

Thank you, that works for figuring the weekly overtime out. Do you know

how
to make the "total hours" cell stop at 40?

So that I have Regular hours 40 and then in the other cell it show the
number of OT hours? Right now it shows: regular hours 42.5 OT hours

2.5.

I am trying to set up a time card that I downloaded from the templates

page
on MS. I like the format of the one that I have, but this is what I

want
it
to do:

Currently it is set up to calculate time for the week as streight

time,
i.e.
56.4 hours for the week.

What I would like it to do is when the total number of hours reaches

40,
then anything over that goes into another cell for the number of

over-time
hours.

Is there a formula that anyone knows that I can use for this, or a

function?
