No built in countdown timers.

Hi All,
I work in a lab and run several tests daily, some
simultaneously. It seems as though Excel would be able to
support one or more countdown timers. I already know how
to refresh a sheet at regular intervals. Does anyone know
of some pre-fab code that allows one to set a certain
value in hh-mm-ss and countdown to 0? I run tests that
range from 5 mins to 24 hours. I have browsed the usual
recommended sites and don't recall any such code.
