I am working out rosters over a three week period for 10 staff, I need to
calculate in time worked each day in hours & minutes (less meal breaks if
applicable) and then add all the daily hours to get a weekly total in hours &
minutes. The total hours are usually greater than 24.
 
Format the cells as Time and pick the "13:30" option, which stands for
Hours:Minutes. Then in the column for the total switch to the "37:30:55"
option. It will show your hours even above 24 and minutes, but you will have
to ignore the last two digits which show seconds.

If that's not good for you maybe someone else knows how to get just hours
and minutes. None of Excel's hh:mm formats work above 24 hours.
