Column D has a formula in it =IF(B15>=34,"70",IF(B15<34,70-C15))
it reports a 70 if someone takes 34 hours off in a row, or subtracts 70 from whats in colum C.

Column C has a formula in it=SUM(A9:A15) but it needs to report a "0" or the sum of the hours of the last 7 days worked in column A.

Column E has a formula in it =SUM(A2:A11) reporting the hours of the last 8 days worked in column A.

Cell A,B, has no formulas.
A is numbers put in for hours worked each day.
B is used to make Column D report a 70 or a calculation. Don't really want a column B involved but seems only way so far to get the 70 to report in column D.

The idea is to have Column C check Column D to see if a 70 is showing, if so then put a "0" in Column C, or Show a total of the hours in the last 7 rows on Column A, if column D is showing the calculation it is supposed to.

If i put a 35 in Column B then Column D shows a 70, If i put a 22 in Column B then Column D shows a total of what's in Column C -70. And that works.
The 35 and 22 mean nothing other than (greater than or equel to 35) or (less than 35).

I need Column C to show "0" if Column D shows a 70, also if Column D is showing a number other than 70 then Column C needs to do the calc of the hours worked for the last 7 rows in Column A and show that total.

my problem is the formula i am trying =IF(D9=70,"0"),IF(D9<70, SUM(A3:A9)), reports a #VALUE! in C when I put a 35 in Column B, when I PUT 22 in column B it reports a #VALUE! in both cells C,D upsetting both Cells, instead of a 0 or a running total just in C.

I am not sure what it needs to do. Formulas need to see other formulas as numbers? Or how to get them from canceling each other out because they both a reporting a result from each other.
heres the layout below:

A B C D E
Hours Hours Not Last 7 days Hours aval Last 8 days
Worked worked hours worked hours worked
10
7
8
12
5.5
0.5
0 22 #VALUE! #VALUE! this row has the new formula i have been trying =IF(D9=70,"0"),IF(D9<70, SUM(A3:A9)) this dosen't work.
0 45 43 70 55
12 55 15 49
11 56 14 46.5
5.5 34.5 35.5 37.5
3 22 32 38 34
2 35 33.5 70 33.5

The real need for this sheet is to calculate the last 7 days of hours worked and show the totals and, the total hours subtracted from 70 is hours left for the next day.
They can't work over 70 hours in a week 7 days.

I need hours worked each day.
I need total hours worked last 7 days to be calculated and hours avalible calculated. (70 minus hours worked last 7 days.)

If they take 34 or mores hours off in a row then it goes back to 70 and then next day it starts over.

So it should look like this:
Hours Hours Not Last 7 days Hours aval Last 8 days
Worked worked hours worked hours worked
10
7
8
12 if I can do this w/o using column B would
5.5 be better.
0.5
0 22 43 27
0 35 0 70 0
12 35 0 70 0
11 22 56 14 46.5
5.5 22 34.5 35.5 37.5
3 22 32 38 34
2 35 0 70 0
5.5 22 39 31 39


Can someone give me a hand on this? it boggleing me.

Thank you tons

If i need to send the sheet via email let me know.

It's late and I'm finally leaving the plant.

Your post is too confusing for this late hour, but just a few cursory
observations.

Take the quotes out of your formulas where they enclose *real* numbers.

=IF(B15>=34,"70",IF(B15<34,70-C15))
=IF(D9=70,"0"),IF(D9<70, SUM(A3:A9))

The 70 and the zero (0) are supposed to be numbers, right?
The quotes makes them text!

Also, 70-C15
is *not* the same as
C15-70

Which do you really want?

Have a nice evening.

I put your numbers into a spreadsheet, and came close to what you were looking for with these:

C15: =IF(B15>=34,0,SUM(A9:A15))
D15: =IF(B15>=34,70,70-C15)

I didn't see where column E was coming from, but maybe the above will help you to work out how to write the formula for it.
 
Looking at the two formulae, D15 can obviously be simplified to:

D15: =70-C15
