Help with this formula =COUNTIF($E7:$CP7, "V")
I am trying to keep track of the vacation hours my employees take. Excel has a good program that helps you count each quarter separately. However, this formula below means if I put a V in the space it turns it purple and a count of one in the total column. I actually need it to let me put in V-8 or V-4 so I can keep track of the actual hours.

- Maggie1953Copper ContributorI cannot tell you how much this helped me to get caught up. I do have one more question. In our company, they can take vacations in any amount. We are given a certain number of hours in January, and we can use them all year in any increments. It adds all the 4/8 I put in but not the other numbers.
Try this. If you don't have Microsoft 365 or Office 2021, confirm the formula with Ctrl+Shift+Enter:
=SUM(IF(LEFT($E7:$CP7,2)="V-",-MID($E7:$CP7,2,10)))
