How do i give the word "CLOSE" a value?
I want to make it so that the word close is equal to 1:00 AM... I can get 2
different cells to do that... but i need for example cell C3 to say close... but the word close is equal to 1:00 AM so that my formula can still calculate how many hours are workd example (what i have) IN OUT 5:00 PM 1:00 AM = 8 (what i need) IN OUT 5:00 PM CLOSE = 8 the word CLOSE needs to equal 1:00 AM please advise |

=SUM((C8<B8)+C8-B8)+((E8<D8)+E8-D8)+((G8<F8)+G8-F8)+((I8<H8)+I8-H8)+((K8<J8)+K8-J8)+((M8<L8)+M8-L8)+((O8<N8)+O8-N8)
that's the formula i'm using... is there an easier way to do it???

A) No need for SUM, just
=(C8<B8)+C8-B8)+((E8<D8)+E8-D8)+((G8<F8)+G8-F8)+((I8<H8)+I8-H8)+((K8<J8)+K8-J8)+((M8<L8)+M8-L8)+((O8<N8)+O8-N8 BE) Insert | Name | Define Name: Close Refers to: =TIME(1,0,0) best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "shawnyray" wrote in message ... =SUM((C8<B8)+C8-B8)+((E8<D8)+E8-D8)+((G8<F8)+G8-F8)+((I8<H8)+I8-H8)+((K8<J8)+K8-J8)+((M8<L8)+M8-L8)+((O8<N8)+O8-N8) that's the formula i'm using... is there an easier way to do it???

How do i give the word "CLOSE" a value?
I could suggest a way to use "Close" as 1:00 AM, but not in the way you're
configuring your time sheet to be horizontal. Normally, the days are vertical, with a daily calculation, which is then totaled for the week at the bottom of a column. With a daily calculation, I could easily suggest a way to test for "Close" as being an "OUT" value, and reference a formula to evaluate it to a particular numeric value. If you're set in your design, then I can't suggest anything ...
