IF Statement Problem
I have written the following IF statement to count how much time is used
during a 1 hour time band, where f6 is actual start time, g6 is actual stop time, l6 is start of time band, and m6 is end of time band: =if(f6=l6,if(f6<m6,if(g6<=m6,g6-f6,m6-f6,0),if(f6<m6,if(g6l6,if(g6<=m6,g6-l6,m6-l6),0))) Excel tells me that "I've entered too many arguments" when I enter this formula, and so it won't calculate the time used in the time band. I've made sure I typed the formula correctly. Is there a way to correct this? |

IF Statement Problem
In your 3rd IF you have 3 parameters after the condition expression,
i.e. g6-f6, m6-f6, and 0. I think you need a bracket after the m6-f6 term. Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot, Pete. I put in the missing parenthesis and it worked!
