Excel 2003, time scheduling?

I don't really do development in Excel, but use Excel as most non-pros, for simple spreadsheet, but I though it would be nice to put together, I guess, a rather simple scheduling system for myself.

I'm a teacher that sells teaching time to individual persons. Each customer that buys tuition, pays for a certain number of hours that I would like to keep track of. Each customer also gets a unique order number for each number of hours they purchase.

My teaching hours are 08:00 - 17:00 as displayed in column A below, and the order number is in column B. At the end of the day I would like to:




- By checking a separate table (where I keep a list of all my customers, together with their order number and hours purchased), I would like to find out which ones of my customers were taught today (tomorrow, the following day, etc), i.e what order numbers did I teach today, and
- How many hours did I teach each customer/order number, thereby being able to calculate the outstanding hours remaining to be taught.



My sample customers, in teh example below, has purchased the following number of hours:

Customer no 1111 100 hrs

2222 50 hrs

3333 25 hrs

This is what my sample day looks like:

Time Order no
08:00 1111
09:00 1111
10:00 1111
11:00 2222
12:00
13:00 2222
14:00 3333
15:00 3333
16:00 3333
17:00 3333

Today's result should look somthing like:

Customer no 1111 3 hrs 97 hrs remaining

2222 2 hrs 48 hrs remaining

3333 4 hrs 21 hrs remaining



How do I achieve this?



I would be most grateful for any assistance.



Best regards,

Hi!

This should be relatively easy to accomplish, however, it
all would depend on your layout.

Post back with more specific details.
