Hello,

How is it possible to make a sum of hours?
I just the format 09:45 and wanted to sum several cells. The result is,
that after 24 hours the sum starts at 0 again.
Which kind of formula could I use for the sum of hours?

Thanks a lot
Vicky

Format the cell with [h]:ss
The square brackets prevent mod 24 arithmetic

Same formula. But to keep the hours display from "rolling over" at 24, format
the cell where you have your SUM formula as [h]:mm The brackets keep the 24 hr
hour rollover from occurring.
