Default Format function doesn't recognise [hh]:mm

Hi,

Is there a way of getting the format function in VBA or anothe
function that will do the same job to recognise the custom forma
[hh]:mm?

When reopening a user form, it fills in the values from the relevan
line on the worksheet into the boxes.
However as the time in the worksheet can be over 24 hours, e.g. 4
hours (by using the custom format [hh]:mm), I would like the box i
the user form to show the value in hours and minutes too even if it i
above 23:59:59.

This does not work
cboResponse1.Value = Format (ActiveCell.Offset(0, 8).Value, "[hh]:mm")


This only works for values under 24:00
cboResponse1.Value = Format (ActiveCell.Offset(0, 8).Value, "hh:mm")


cboResponse1.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 8).Value
and this return just displays the time in a numerical format e.g
1.45.....


Thanks for any help you can give
Jenni
