making a resthour list for shift workers. 12 hour shifts/ 7 days a week on 4 week rotation. Rresthour list is monthly. I have the shifts and rest hours sorted with formula;s like these =IF('information for form'!$C$13,"x","")&IF('information for form'!$C$14,"x","")&IF('information for form'!$C$16,"x","") What I am looking to do now is that in a single cell i place the joining date and in the other cell the departure date. At the moment the formula works in each cell, so 24 hrs a day and 31 days a month. How can I get excel to ignore the cells prior to the joining date or after departure date?

Hello - I am creating an excel spread sheet to track hours for my employees. When my employees close the store, they will enter "CL" in their time sheet. When CL is entered in the cell, i want it to calculate the hours worked +1 hour. For instance, if the employee came in at 3PM and worked until close (which for this example is 9 PM) how do write out the formula to calculate 3-9pm plus and extra hour? 7 total hours. Additionally, if they employee did not work till close, say until 8pm, how do make the cell use the correct forumla?
