I need the IF function to add up two cells and if the sum is greater than or
equal to 80, then the cell needs to read "80," if the sum is less than 80 I
just want it to show whatever number it calculates (79 and below).

This is for a timesheet with overtime.

Thank you for your help!!

Use: =IF(Cell1+Cell2<=80,Cell1+Cell2,80)

The syntax: =IF(some result equals or is less than 80, TRUE: the result,
FALSE: show 80)

Try something like: =MIN(SUM(A1:B1),80)
where the 2 cells are A1 and B1

That worked; however, the results are negative numbers...?

Never mind about the negative number thing--figured it out :) Thanks,
