Displaying Time in Excel

I would like to display time in minutes and seconds only even if over
an hour. If the amount of time is 65 minutes I would like it
displayed as 65:00 not 1:05:00. Is this possible in excel?

I am using ms office 2003. I don't see the entry you are speaking
of. I see mm:ss but that doesnot work. it shows 65:00 as 5:00.

You need to enter the string

[m]:ss

in the inputbox in the dialog.

After that, it will appear in the listbox below the input box.
