I have set up a spreadsheet so that I input the time someone starts work and
the time they finish. In the next column, I had set it so that it
automatically works out how many hours they have worked:-

ie. A B C (cell formated as customer
hh:mm)
10:00 14:00 4:00


I am doing this on a daily basis. At the bottom of the spread sheet I would
like it to automatically work out the total ammount of hours worked
throughtout that period. I tried =SUM C2:C30 however it didn't come back
with a normal figure, but something like 3:50.

Any ideas what function I should use to work out total number of hours
worked in column C? Also how should I format cell?

Thanks
 
Hi
just change the format of your target cell to the custom format
[hh]:mm
to prevent the rollover after 24 hours

day !

Thanks for your help all!

Thanks again to Frank Kabel who has answered two of my queries now! Sorry if
these questions have already been asked, as I know how frustrating it can be
to answer the same query over and over again!

Thanks again all

PS: My spreadsheet is looking excellent now!

If you format the cell with the custom format
[hh]:mm
it should come out right.
