Mind Gone Blank!!
My wife has asked me to create a sheet that will give her the following
info. She works in a store with a number of checkouts. The sheet will have all her staff start times and finish times. This will be inputted every day. Excel will then create another sheet that will show the time of the day at 30 min intervals how many checkout staff is on at that time. Nothing too fancy, I have been sitting here for two hours trying to figure this one out. I have a screenshot of the info if anyone wants it if I'm not clear enough. newsgroup @ mmillar . co . uk delete the spaces to reply! thanks folks -- Regards M Millar |

Cheers guys - Specially to the Captain, as I've now got it working. And
thanks for the pointer on the 24 hour - though she has just moved out of one to a "days only" store! -- Regards M Millar "SantaUK" wrote in message ...

Thank you Daddy it shows very clear thinking.
Instinctively I thought that if someone started or finished working at a certain time then they should be shown as working at that time. However, after digesting your formula and adding to your formula to achieve this I found that adding up the number of people working and multiplying by 1/2 hr, your formula gave the correct answer whereas my modification added a hour per person. (Ok its obvious even to me now! <g ) Well done. -- Regards Sandy In Perth, the ancient capital of Scotland with @tiscali.co.uk "daddylonglegs" wrote in message news:daddylonglegs.273rba_1146442803.0798@excelfor um-nospam.com...
