Default Suggestion needed

If your worksheets are named Project1, Project2, Project3, Project4
and Project5...
If your Resource names are in column A in all spreadsheets...
If Capital/Expense is in column B in all spreadsheets...
If the % is in column C in all spreadsheets...

If the Resource Names are in column A on the Admin worksheet...
If "John Doe" is in cell A2

Create a helper column in column B on the Admin tab. Set the formula
in B2 to:
=SUMIF(Project1!A:A,admin!A2,Project1!C:C)+SUMIF(P roject2!A:A,admin!
A2,Project2!C:C)+SUMIF(Project3!A:A,admin!A2,Proje ct3!C:C)
+SUMIF(Project4!A:A,admin!A2,Project4!C:C)+SUMIF(P roject5!A:A,admin!
A2,Project5!C:C)

Then, in column C, you will place the formula that will give you the
amount of admin time:
=IF(B2=1,0,1-B2)
Be prepared to replace the "1" in both places in this formula with
"100" depending on how you've formatted your % numbers.

Now copy the formula in B2 down the B column, and the formula in C2
down the C column.

If desired, hide column B on the Admin tab, as it is a helper column
and might be confusing.
