I am an employer and my employees give me a sheet of the hours that they
worked and the name of the client they were at. Can I build a sheet to
include the hours worked, the client and then have it add up the indiviual
clients hours. in one cell with a if statement ex =if(a2=gallery,sum
b3-b2,"") Galley clients name

Make a database
a b c
employee client hours
then just use a sumproduct for each employee & client using dropdown lists

I built a worksheet one for each employee. with a drop down of the clients
so after i put in their hours i will choose which client it belongs to. Now
how do format a cell to add up all the same client names to show how long
they were there?

If desired, send your file to my address below. I will only look if:
1. You send a copy of this message on an inserted sheet
2. You give me the newsgroup and the subject line
3. You send a clear explanation of what you want
4. You send before/after examples and expected results.
