Calculate Processing Time With Fixed Time Paramaters


I am wanting to calculate the the processing time for an order that takes place within normal business hours and workweek. A normal day is from 8:00 to 5:00 If a task is started at 2:00 PM Monday and finished at 10:00 AM Tuesday then the result should be 5 hours as I do not want to include any time outside of normal hours. I can figure out how to subtract dates and times but not how to bridge a day(s). My data is somewhat flexible as I have not started the project yet. I can use separate cells for the times and dates or have two cells that use both incorporate the date and time (8/27/09 2:00 PM) for start and end time or any other idea.

Processing Folder One File At A Time
I want to open each file in a folder, one at a time, and save each file with a new name (based on cells in the worksheet) to a different folder. This is what I have so far:

Sub aaa()
Dim i As Long, files As String, data As String
Dim fName As String

ChDir _
"C:Files1"

Cells.Select
Range("A1").Activate
Selection.ClearContents
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
i = 0
files = Dir("*.txt")
Do While files <> ""
Open files For Input As 1

This code doesn't open any files unless there is a value already in the cells that fName uses.

Combining 2 Vba's And Shortening The Processing Time
I have created 2 seperate VBA's that I would like to combine and improve upon. One removes Duffs, and the other eliminates blank rows. My goal is to do a copy and paste/special, then remove the duffs, and then delete all rows that do not have data in column H.

I have tried several VBA's listed on this sight, but cannot seem to get a VBA that does everything I need it to do, and do it quickly. I have attached an example of my spreadsheet.

To Calculate The Difference Between The Start Time And End Time
This may be a bit vague but here goes.

I have to calculate the difference between the start time and end time of a job. The only catch is, how can I avoid calculating "out of hours" time. So, if a job goes from 9am to 9am the next day, I want it to avoid calculating between the hours of 23:30 and 03:30.

Another example is if a job goes from 02:00 to 04:00, I want it to avoid the tim between 02:00 and 03:00.

If there is a difference in days, so the job goes overnight, how do I take that into consideration also.

Calculate Date Differences: Time In & Time Out
I'm trying to devise a formula to produce "days in inventory" based on the following data:

Date In
Date Out (which may be blank if cargo still here)
Todays Date
Days in Whse (which is the formula I can't figure out!)

It needs to work like this, date out - date in, unless date out is null. If date out is null, the result should be calculated based off of todays date - date in.

Calculate Time Difference In Decimal Time
I've got a time difference from 8:00AM - 12:30PM as 4.30 I'm trying to get the minutes, .30, converted into a 6 minute increment, .5. Is it possible to do this and if so how would it be done? Below is a chart of how the time is converted from 6 minutes increments into decimal form.

6 = 0.1 36 = 0.6
12 = 0.2 42 = 0.7
18 = 0.3 48 = 0.8
24 = 0.4 54 = 0.9
30 = 0.5 60 = 1.0

I have a sheet with a number of different columns, is there a way that when data is input into a cell in the first column that it time stamps the last column on the same row, and this time stamp is fixed. Then when data is input into the cell below the same thing happens, so i can have a time stamp for each entry.

How To Calculate Time
WHen I was a beginner at Excel, I came up with the following formula to calculate the time difference between two "time" values. Since I was too lazy to add a ":" between my hour and minute, I had decided to simply enter the start (column B) and end time (column C) as a military time (e.g., 0100, 1230, 1500, 1930, 2300, 2359). The following formula would be in Column D.

Calculate Effective Time
I have a sheet for tracking my poker playing online.

In column A I enter the start time as an Excel Dates & Times and in column B I enter the end time in the same format.

It could look something like this:

Start time End time
2007-01-03 18:20 2007-01-03 18:50
2007-01-03 18:30 2007-01-03 18:45

(Swedish date formatting)

This means I have been playing two tables simultaneously. Now I could get total time in "table hours" using SUM Formula:

=SUM(B:B)-SUM(A:A)

which in this case would result in 45 minutes.

But I also would like to calculate effective playing time so if I play 10 minutes on two tables simultaneously it will only count as 10 minutes and not 20 minutes.

Example, if someone worked 20 minutes over they would be paid for 15 minutes overtime.
If someone worked 31 minutes over they would be paid 30 minutes overtime.

The possible overtime someone could work in one day is 6 hours.

I want it to return the overtime in decimal numbers (e.g 0.25 for 15 minutes overtime).

I have attached a sample spreadsheet.

I would prefer this to be done in VBA if possible?

Calculate Time, But Round To Nearest 15 Minutes
I am trying to calculate the time between two cells and have the answer in hours, with two decimals, but in .25 minute increments.

Desired result:
1/1/07 12:00 in A1
1/1/07 14:10 in B1
1.25 in C1

0-7 Minutes - round down to 0.00
8-22 Minutes - round to 0.25
23-37 Minutes - round to 0.50
38-52 Minutes - round to 0.75
52-60 Minutes - round to 1.00

Because this is billable time, the number is never negative, so I don't need the formula to verify the first date/time cell is less than the second.

Calculate Date/time Format Over 24 Hours
I need to calculate the difference between two cells that are formated like this: 11/10/2006 13:00. Simple subtract only works when the date hasn't changed (the subtract formula seems to focus on the time and ignore the date).

I found a formula that will work, but the results are in regular numbers, I need the hh:mm format and if I change the format of the result column, the time displayed is wrong.

The formula is=((B2-A2)*1440)/60)

If my result is 122.6 in regular numbers, when I convert to hh:mm I get 14:00.

Is there a better way to do this? Also, is there a way to eliminate weekend & holiday hours from the calculation? This is not as important as getting the results to calculate correctly in the hh:mm format.

Date/calculate Elapsed Time Formula
I have been asked to make some ammendements to a workbook currently in use.

I have to calculate elapsed time, and my formula is giving me odd results. I have a start time (cell B5), and an end time (cell F5). The formula being used was =IF(F5>0,((F5-B5)*24)) which gave the correct result. The cell is formatted as general. It didn't alot for the situation where the end time has not happened yet.

I changed the formula to =IF(F5>0,((F5-B5)*24),(K5-B5)*24) where cell K5 is the current time. The results are coming out with 6 - 9 decimal places. It makes no sense as I've tried setting the times to be exactly 24 or 48 hours to the minute. I've also tried replacing K5 in the formula to now(),

Calculate Hours Worked After Specific Time
i have a timesheet that we are trying to use. the problem is the column that says shift diff. if an employee works after 6:30pm for 1and 1/2hr, he is entitled to shift hours. shift hours is between 6m and 8am.

As long as he works after 6.30pm but works for at least one and a half hour, he will get the shift.

if work, 9am to 7:30pm, and have break between 2-3pm, should have 1.5hrs shift and 9.5hrs total
if work, 7:45pm-9:45pm, and have break between 8:30-9pm, total hrs work is 1.5 and shift hrs s/b 1.5hrs
if work 3pm to 12am and have break between 7-8pm, total hrs work is 8 and shift hrs s/b 5hrs

Calculate Due Date & Time
I want to be able to calculate a due date two days from an entered date/time. If I input 9/3/2009 3:00 PM into cell F6 I would like cell G6 to display 9/5/2009 3:00 PM. The formula that I am currently using includes a holiday list so if the due date lands on a day within that list it gets pushed out.

My formula is =if(F6="","",Workday(F6,2,Z1:Z144)).

Basically when F6 gets populated G6 is supposed to populate with a due date of two days later (same time of the day). Currently if my input date/time is 9/3/2009 3:00 PM the formula is displaying a due date of 9/5/2009 12:00 AM.

Ignore Certain Cells - Trying To Calculate The Time Taken Between Queries
[url]

In the above, i am trying to calculate the time taken between queries. I do not want any times/queries that are from someone else on the network to be counted.

I need something to ignore the blank cells, and take data from the next cell above which has data. I3, I8 and I14 are currently the trouble spots, and should be displaying 00:00:00, 00:04:00 and 00:06:00 respectively.

Note that someone from the network could have literally thousands in a row before I perform another query, not just alternating like the screenshot.

B is the real life time the query was performed. F is how long the query took. F does not take in to account the seconds between queries, which build up, so i am using B.

I am trying to find a way to calculate the number of hours between date/times found in separate rows. The attached data set will help to envision what I am talking about.

For each couple of rows, I need to find a way to calculate the number of hours elapsed from row 1 to row 2. In the first example, to calculate the number of hours between 12/2/2009 8:56:51 and 12/4/2009 6:35:27.
