Also, in thinking about it, instead of this test...

If IsNumeric(Target) Then Exit Sub


maybe this one would be more robust...

If Not IsDate(Target.Value) Then Exit Sub

If Right(UCase(Target.Value), 2) = "AM" Then _
Target.Value = Left(Target.Value, Len(Target.Value) - 2) & "
AM"

If Right(UCase(Target.Value), 2) = "PM" Then _
Target.Value = Left(Target.Value, Len(Target.Value) - 2) & "
PM"


I believe you can replace the above code lines with this single line...

Target.Value = CDate(Target.Value)

and it will successfully handle 10:00p and 10:00a also. Of course, it
returns the seconds as well, but the cell can be Custom Formatted to
handle that; or we could just do it in code...

Target.Value = Replace(CDate(Target.Value), ":00 ", " ")
