Hi, I hope someone will be able to help me please.

I am trying to work out how long a community centre is open each day. In Column A I have the date, in Column B I have the start time of a booking, in Column C I have the end time of the booking, Column D is the unique hours to count.

I want to calculate total hours each day that the community centre is open, eliminating any double or triple counting if there is any overlap in bookings.

For example in the table below the total hours open on 04/04/2018 should be 5 hours. However the formula =MAX(0,IF(A2<>A1,C2-B2,C2-MAX(B2,AGGREGATE(14,6,C$1:C1/(A$1:A1=A2),1))))*24 is wrongly giving me 11 hours.

Any help would be great. The formula above works for some combinations of bookings but not all as detailed below.

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.

Try this VBA solution. It doesn't deal with overlaps but it is a start
Code: 
Sub Hours_To_Count()


Application.ScreenUpdating = False


Dim X As Long, L As Long, J As Long


X = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count


For L = 2 To X
    
    J = DateDiff("h", ActiveSheet.Range("B" & L), ActiveSheet.Range("C" & L))
 
    If J <> 0 Then
 
        ActiveSheet.Range("D" & L).Value2 = J
 
    End If


Next L


Application.ScreenUpdating = True


End Sub

Thanks for this MoshiM but unfortunately I am not familiar with VBA. Could this be done as a formula in excel instead?

Hi,

I changed "Hours to Count" to represent unique hours, it works for the data here, but fails for the triple overlap as in overlaps in 3 consecutive rows, let me know if that is a constraint:

Thanks Aryatect but yes unfortunately this is a constraint.

The formula fails in the example below:

I have no idea why this is giving me the wrong values. My table is exactly the same as yours. Do I need to use Ctrl+Shift+Enter with this formula like Fluff mentioned in his post?

Sorry know that I am probably being silly but I greatly appreciate everyone's help.
