I am very new to excel and could use some help trying to do a formula. On my
worksheet Col B(Hrs Worked Today). Col C(Total hrs worked last 7 days). Col
D(would be 70 hrs minus Col C). Col E(Total hrs worked last 8 days). I know
the basic formulas to complete the above steps.

B1 C D E
10 50 20 60

If I take a 34 hr rest period, I get a fresh 70 hrs which would put col c&e
at 0 and col d at 70. I need a formula that will do this when I put an
idenity (reset or 34 etc.) in B2

I'm not sure how you're calculating column C now, but if I understand
you correctly:

C2: =IF(B2="reset",0,<your existing formula)
D2: =70-C2

Thanks JE I will give this a try. On col C I would put =sum(B2:B6) manually.
Then the next cell I (b3) would put in =sum(B3:B7). Til i filled a full month
period and just been copy and pasting a new month with the formulas. I knew
theere probally is a easier way but I am new to excel.
