Hi David, thank you for replying I have been trying to figure this formula
out for days now... I am creating a worksheet for sick and vacation
leaves.... v8 will be keyed in a column if the person is in vacation leave
or
s8 for sick leave (8 for 8hours) and I need to total how many vacation
hours
did the person take in one column hence, v8 + v8 = v16. And more
importantly
I need to only count the v's and s's to sum up.... I am sorry if i dont
make
myself clear...

Firstly, please ask your question in the body of the message rather than
just in the subject line.

Secondly, you'll need to explain what you mean by
v8(col a), v8(col b), and v16(col c)
