I need help with an IF statement.

Question

I need a total time worked for the day. But not all employees take a lunch. Right now this formula comes up blank if the employee didn't take a lunch.
Total Day Worked=[Time Worked Formula]-[Lunch Formula]
I know I need an IF statement but not sure how to write it.

One way to fix this is to fix the [Lunch Formula] field so that it calculates to a zero instead of a blank when the employee did not take a lunch. But if you want to kind of patch your existing formula you can do this

Total Day Worked=[Time Worked Formula] - Nz([Lunch Formula])

The function Nz (.....) Will convert any Null values into a numeric Zero
