Hi all,

I've been trying to create an =if formula which runs off an =now formula. The question i have is if anybody could help me produce a if function which states when an =now() displays the times between 18:00 and 20:00 a £5 deduction is taken from an overal price, but when its any other time the deduction is simply 0.

I will be able to deduct the amount from the total value its just i can't seem to tell the if function to look for only the times between and including 18:00 and 20:00.

If anybody could help me with this or state a way it can be done will be very appreciated.

Thanks in advance,


Tom

Well, you have to consider the date as well, becuase NOW() = Date AND Time.


Try

=IF(AND(A1-INT(A1)>="18:00:00"+0,A1-INT(A1)<="20:00:00"+0),5,0)
Where A1 : =NOW()

Thanks for taking the time to answer VoG, but it doesn't seem to work. I did change the A1 cells to the cell on my spreadsheet which contains the =NOW() formula (cell G31), and also changed the time on my laptop to 18:50 (which is between the time gap) but it just doesn't seem to work.

... and you also recalculated of course, didn't you?

Yep, I posted without thinking. See jonmo1's suggestion (and his signature!).
