counting cells within certain time frames - 24 hour clock
I am looking to count the number of cells that meet criteria in a 24 hour
clock format. The cell range is C2:C1395. If a time falls between 00:00:00 and 00:59:59, I want to count it. This would continue for the remaining 23 hours I was able to get this to work at one point using COUNTIF, but now it is not functioning and an error keeps appearing. Also, would it make a difference in the formula if I was using Excel 03 versus 07? Thanks for any help. |

Times are stored by Excel as fractions of a 24-hour day, so 1 hour is
actually 1/24, 2 hours is 2/24 etc. If you put 1 to 24 in (for example) E2:E25, then you can start with this in F2: =COUNTIF(C$2:C$1395,"<"&E2/24) - COUNTIF(C$2:C$1395,"<"&E1/24) assuming E1 is blank. Then just copy this down to F25, where the numbers in column E represent the hours that you are counting up to (excluding them). Hope this helps.

Try these. Assuming no empty cells.
12:00:00 AM to 12:59:59 AM =SUMPRODUCT(--(HOUR(A1:A10)=0),--(HOUR(A1:A10)<1)) 1:00:00 AM to 1:59:59 AM =SUMPRODUCT(--(HOUR(A1:A10)=1),--(HOUR(A1:A10)<2)) Follow that pattern until you get to 23:00:00 to 23:59:59 =SUMPRODUCT(--(HOUR(A1:A10)=23),--(A1:A10<1)) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "lummox" wrote in message ...

No luck on either of the suggestions. Any other options?

Are you sure your times are true Excel times? Do the entries also contain
dates, like this 1/1/2009 22:15:00 ? In Excel, time is really a number, the fractional part of a day (which has a value of 1), formatted to look like a time entry. 12:00 PM is half a day so half of 1 is 0.5. The true value of 12:00 PM is 0.5. You can test to see if the entries are true time values by using one of these formulas: =COUNT(A1) =ISNUMBER(A1) If the entry in A1 is a true Excel time value COUNT will return 1 and ISNUMBER will return TRUE. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "lummox" wrote in message ...
