Default Within another function calculate and sum number of days

Thank you for your help, however I could not get the formula to work.
I set up a simple matrix (see below) and tried to use the formula on it.
Note: the column to the right of €œD€ has the €œnetwork days€ calculated for
verification

The formula as written did not seem to work I tried several variations of
it. I tried a few variations but nothing worked. If I changed the date values
in the first set the result in formula 2 would change to that value.

=IF(C1="Done",NETWORKDAYS(A2,B2)+SUM(D2:D10),SUM(D 2:D10))
Gave a result of €œ0€


=IF(C2="Done",NETWORKDAYS(A2,B2)+SUM(D2:D10),SUM(D 2:D10))
Gave a result of €œ5€

It only calculates the first line, how does one establish a range (i.e.
C1:C10)

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for you patience.

The ranges are hypothetical...you can change as per your need.

Thanks

How can a use a function within a function:

The spread sheet has three columns for this example:
A - Start Date
B - End Date
C - Status

For those rows that match the status criteria "Done" I wish to calculate
the
number of networkdays between the Start and End dates and add it to a
total.

I have tried "SUMIF" but "Sum_range" does not seem to accept the
calculation.

Thank you in advance for your help.
