Time formulas

[Blazingsaddles]

Here is my timesheet:

c6: 11:00 pm
c7: 12:00 am
c8: 7:00 am
c9: 3:00 pm
c10: (Actual hours worked)

If I use the formula: =IF(C6>C7,C7+1-C6,C7-C6)*24
I can get the time for c6/c7, but what formula do I use to not only get the
hours from c6/c7, but also from c8/c9 - to get the total of 9 hours in c10?

Thanks, I appreciate any help.

One way

=MOD(C9-C6,1)-MOD(C8-C7,1)

Try this:

=(MOD(C7-C6,1)+MOD(C9-C8,1))*24

When I put in your formula, I get 9:00 am. I actually need 9.00. What
revision to the formula should I make?

Thanks.

=(MOD(C7-C6,1)+MOD(C9-C8,1))*24

Format the cell as General or number. This will take care of either set
crossing midnight.

Ugh! What am I doing wrong? C10 is 12:00 am with this formula.

Thanks.

 

[Blazingsaddles]

Excellent! It worked!

Thanks for all your help. You have made my life much easier!

You asked for an answer as a number of hours, not as hours and minutes, so
don't format the answer as time, but as General or Number.

You need to custom format the result cell to [hh]:mm
It uses whatever regional setting (in Windows) you are using. That is why I
always change my regional settings to 24 hour.

If you are going to use decimal values you need to format the result as
General or number, not time

Thanks David, that is what I did.
