I have a excel timesheet that I need to add the total hours for each day.

The comparison A1>B1 returns True (1) or False (0). When I open the file in the Excel app on the iPhone it is OKThe only place where I found a solution for displaying duration over 24 hours in hours and minutes!Thanks very much – sorted a problem out for me which will make a big difference.Hi I am trying to just key enter hours but > than 24 hours. :-) Microsoft and the Office logo are trademarks or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.Kutools for Excel Solves Most of Your Problems, and Increases Your Productivity by 80%Office Tab Brings Tabbed interface to Office, and Make Your Work Much Easier Any idea how I can do this please?Hi Karen. The formula = sum of all cells desired to be totaled.Not sure how I really found this out, but it works once tested.

I have a time in and then time out but my spreadsheet includes the date on it and when I add the columns to give me hours worked it gives me a decimal I understand that excel works in decimals for time but I have tried changing the format to just [hh]:mm it will change the number to a huge decimal that doesn’t make sense.

The result is 4:15, which is not what you might expect. lets say 209. I don’t want to show it as days, just total hours.

Double quotation converts the numbers to text, right? @Mike… assuming 19:55 is in B1 and 6:07 is in C1, try this in D1…=(C1+(C1 < B1)-B1) So why do they display different answers?When you enter a formula in a cell to add up times and the result of the formula is over 24 hours, Excel displays the difference between the result and 24 hours.

28:00 would show as 04:00 again. How about adding or summing times over 24 hours to display the real result? It means if F1 is less than D1 (in other words if the time in F is earlier than the time in D), then generate a date from the content of C1 and add 1 to it. Please help in defining the excel formula for this.I’m trying to sum up times, but my date format comes in like: “d/MM/yyyy hh/mm/ss” I’ve tried the same logic of formatting to “d/mm/yyyy [hh]:mm” but in the example given (using the same total nrs but in format 1/01/1900 6:30), when I sum I get “6/01/1900 12:15” in stead of “1/01/1900 33:15” – any idea anyone? A little convoluted.=IF(F1< D1,TEXT(DATE(RIGHT(C1,4),MID(C1,4,2),LEFT(C1,2))+1,"dd:mm:yyyy"),C1) All I needed was the [hh]:mm; your explanation and example were perfect. I can’t figure out the formula for this subtraction. Help!! I can’t figure out how to do it!Wow literally years of trying to figure out why it didn’t work. I am trying to understand the use of double quotation mark for duration of time in formulas. How do I format a custom setting to reflect hhh:mm:ss?hi mike, great stuff.


The detailed steps follow below: Select the cell (s) you want to format.

Below is the column of minutes for a particular day.

To get the correct calculated result between two times over midnight, you can apply the following formula: 1.

I have to stay under 60 hours. However, when I use double quotation in an IF formula inside a calculated field in pivottable, it doesn't work. There doesn’t seem to be any way of entering a custom format in the same way that you have in your example.

A question that is often asked is “when I add up times and the total comes to more than 24 hours, why does it not show correctly?”. While making the calculation of time values it happens that the hours add up to more than 24 hours and if we do not select the right format of time the SUM formula or AutoSum function displays the remainder of time instead of the actual sum of time values. @Mohd…Assuming the 3 times are in A1:C1, your formula will be =SUM(A1:C1) and that should do it. Right click the selected cells and then click Format Cells, or press Ctrl + 1. !Then format C1 with a custom format of hh:mm or whatever format you want@Marnel – it looks like you’ve hit the 10000 hour limitation.
