Time Display in a Stop Watch fromat
Is there a way to format a cell's time in a "stop watch" format, without the
date prefix or the AM/PM. Currently (1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM) Suggested (0:00). Any help is greatly appriciated. Thanks. |

Use a custom format of:
hh:mm:ss -- Regards, Dave "Gabe" wrote: Is there a way to format a cell's time in a "stop watch" format, without the date prefix or the AM/PM. Currently (1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM) Suggested (0:00). Any help is greatly appriciated. Thanks. |

Time Display in a Stop Watch fromat
I am looking to have the formula bar read 0:00 as well. So when I click on
the cell I can just type 1,230,3,etc.. and it will appear as 1:00, 2:30, 3:00. just like a stop watch would. Any tips?

Time Display in a Stop Watch fromat
Thanks for the info, but I think I figured it out. Excel stores dates and
times as serial numbers. I have to input the correct dates as well otherwise it is trying to subtract the past. Example: 1pm 1/1/1900 from 12am 1/1/1900. It's too bad excel does'nt have a basic stop watch format, maybe they should make one in a new version. Thanks.

How would it tell the difference between 340 as in 03:40 or 340 as in the
integer 340? -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Gabe" wrote in message ... Thanks for the info, but I think I figured it out. Excel stores dates and times as serial numbers.

Time Display in a Stop Watch fromat
I guess the problem that I am running into is that when I try to add 13:00
hours plus 13:00 hours which should be (26:00 hours) excel displays the time as 2:00AM? I have tried all kinds of formats, but i can't seem to find any that will count the hours up? I am trying to find out how many total hours an individual worked throughout the week based on the times the indivual clocked in and out. A1 (7:00:00 AM), B1 (8:00:00 PM), C1 (=A1-B1+(A1<B1)) C1 displays 13:00, A2 (7:00:00 AM), B2 (8:00:00 PM), C2 (=A1-B1+(A1<B1)) C2 displays 13:00 as well, C3 (=SUM(C1,C2)) C3 displays 2:00? How can I get it to display 26:00? Any suggestions? Your help is greatly appriciated. Thanks.
