Default Timecard - Calculating Time Error

The problem is not your formula, it's your data. I just showed you another
formula that will work as well. Your original formula works fine. It's your
data that is incorrect

It won't bring up "ERROR..." any more?

It can be shortened to

=IF(MOD(F16-C16,1)-MOD(E16-D16,1)"08:00","ERROR, Check your
hours",(MOD(F16-C16,1)-MOD(E16-D16,1))*24)

format as general

however I tested your formula and it works so the dropdown results must
be
wrong

I have created a time card where employees choose from a drop down
box
what
time the started, time they left for lunch, returned for lunch, and
then left
to go home. I have the time in the following columns

C D E F
G
16 Time In Lunch Out Lunch In Time Out Total Hours Worked

I have the following function in G16:
=IF(((D16-C16+(C16D16)+F16-E16+(E16F16))*24)8,"ERROR - Please
check
your
hours.",((D16-C16+(C16D16)+F16-E16+(E16F16))*24)).

the purpose it to not allow employees to enter more than 8 hours per
day and
make them enter a time for all four cells. However we are getting
errors for
such things as:
C D E F
16 8:15am 11:30am 12:30am 5:15pm

Please advise.
