Store everything as a number of minutes, use "minutes mod 60" to actually display them and use "floor(minutes/60)" to get the number of hours.

convert it all to minutes, and go from there. Add the minutes together, so you get 205 minutes worked. Divide by 60 (you'll need to make a system that stores it as an exact value somewhere, so you can then work with the tenths and hundredths to find the minutes)

thanks for the qiuck replies. i have just had a look at a way of creating the time sheet and i have realised that i will need to create four input fields for the day i have worked. e.g
Time in Time out TIme In Time out
08:45 12:00 13:00 17:00
it would then need to work out the time frames in between the 2 in and out fields. (make sense???).

"Sorry to bump but i cant get Minutes Mod 60 to work. "
Do this and you'll understand:
Make FOUR counters and name them "Time", "Hours", "Minutes", and "Seconds"
Add the follwong events:
Every 1 second
Add 1 to "Time"
Always
Set "hours" to value("Time") / 3600
Set "Minutes" to value("Time") / 60
Set "Seconds" to value("Time") mod 60
This is just an example, tho. You sould never use the 'Every" condition or else your game will not run consistantly on different machines.
