Default Problem with hundredth of seconds

Hello.
I use the following code to get an executing time in cell A1 :

HeureDebut = time()
code......
HeureFin = time()
Duree = HeureFin - HeureDebut
Range("A1").value = Duree

I get numbers such as 0.000173611111111138 in standard number format.
If I use hh:mm:ss.00 as a mask, I dont get but zeroes after the seconds :
00:15:00
I use ROUNDED(0.000173611111111138,6) to get 00:15:03.
This doesn't affect the calculations, only the display.
Why cant Excel use the numbers provided by VBA ?
Thanks in advance.
Daniel
