Default Format cell as military time

JE,

I appreciate the info but I am not familiar with how to set this up. Where
do I need to paste that code in my worksheet to make it work?

Thanks...
Mike

I want to type in 0700 in a cell and press <tab to go to the next cell and
it will auto format it like 07:00 (military time). ex: type in 1400 and it
display as 14:00, etc. In other words, I want to be lazy and not have to type
the colon. How do I need to format the cell?
Thanks... Mike
