Hi Debbie,

Try with timevalue() instead of string formatted time:

"02:00" = timevalue("02:00")

I see a second issue, you try to 'sum' strings with I46-H46.

Wkr,

JP

I have formulas in 5 columns that give me the total hours a child is

formulas, it says "0". What am I doing wrong?

=SUM(B47:K47)

This is the formula I have that calculates the time in attendance if
this helps. Those results are what I am trying to sum.

=IF(H46="s","2:00",IF(H46="CLOSED","0:00",IF(H46=" A","2:00",TEXT(I46-
H46,"h:mm"))))
