Hi Susan,

Since it would appear that they do not get OT until they have worked 40 
hours I would use
if Hours <= 40 then OT = 0

Course some states and employers pay over time if they work more than 8 
hours in a day and you need a more complex formula for that.

Shoot!!!

([overtime]=0) Or ([hours]=40)

I'm still kind of puzzling out how it works, but it does -- so far. I guess
it's that 40 cutoff that was confusing me -- the only way you'll have an
overtime value is if hours is exactly 40 -- so it makes a bit more sense to
me now.  I was hung up on the less thans and greater thans.
