I'm sorry but I guess I asked the question wrong. let see if I can get
this
right this time. There will be 3 columms Let say; A1 Start ,B1 Ending , &
C1
total. I understand the military time but the employees (most) do not.
what
I would like to do is have a pop up or list that would give the employee a
set of time that they could click on With out having to know millitary
time,
sort of like the pop-up calendar or list of sites. I have tried the list
part but when I click on 8:00pm it enters the cell as 8:00am even when I
change the format. I have even tried the list with one row stating
regular
time ie 8:00pm and the cell next to it stating 20:00 but it will only but
in
the first column. Maybe this cannot be done, I don't know..
Try this first... click on the "A" in column A and sweep across to column
"B" so that both columns are highlighted. Now, right-click in the shaded
area and select Format Cells from the menu that pops up. Click on the word
"Custom" in the Category list; then click in the Type field and type hhmm in
it; then click OK. Now enter your time in one of the cells in either column
A or B as a time value (that is, with a colon, you have to use the colon so
the field knows it is a time value) using either 12 or 24 hour format and
see what ends up being displayed. This way, none of your users needs to know
about military time and, since the actual value in the cell is still a time
value, you can do straight time calculation on these values). Is that
acceptable?
