Default calc time value

I can tell you what's wrong her,b ut I can't tell you how to do it right
because you didn't mention such important things as where you are getting
the difference (is that already calculated in R), what the purpose of
column Q is (you listed it but don't seem to use it at all), and what
Saturday and column O have to do with anything.

The reason why your formula doesn't work is that what's in column R
cannot be simultaneously less than 05:59:59 and greater than 06:00:00
(that's what your AND is asking) so you will always get spit back
whatever is in column R.

hi
i am trying to calculate theamount o time between 2 time values

s25 = 05:59:59
t25 = 06:00:00

Q R
row 34 04:36:38 04:37:03
row 35 05:16:52 07:14:01


=IF(O34="Saturday",IF(AND(R34$T$25,R34<$S
$25),"06:00:00",TEXT(MOD(R34,1),"hh:mm:ss")),R34) returns 04:37:03



=IF(O35="Saturday",IF(AND(R35$T$25,R35<$S
$25),"06:00:00",TEXT(MOD(R35,1),"hh:mm:ss")),R35) returns
07:14:01

what i want is if the the time value in column R exceeds 06:00:00 the
time is replace with 06:00:00
this works for row 34 but not row 35

any ideas where i going wrong

thanks kevin
