[JWatson]

I am trying to set up a spreadsheet to track daycare hours per day. The issue is that I can have up to 3 Time In/Time Out per day.

Can anyone help?

Hi JWatson,

The first thing you are going to want to do is set the format of the filled cells to time and use a 24hr clock system with the am / pm suffix. This will allow better handling of the values for calculating.

Once this has been done, and assuming your data then looks like this starting in A1...

Excel 2010
	A	B	C	D	E	F	G
1	Time In	Time Out	Time In	Time Out	Time In	Time Out	Total Hours
2	08:00:00	10:00:00	12:00:00	13:30:00	15:20:00	17:30:00	05:40:00
Sheet1

The formula in G2 is: =SUM((B2-A2)+(D2-C2)+(F2-E2))
