MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / August 2007How 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 What formula are you using to calculate the hours worked?

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 ... Sorry!
