single cell time entry as time - time; Ever seen this?

Has anyone ever seen time entered as '7:00 - 9:00' in a TIME formatted cell? (It does allow the entry)
VarType returns string. vba attempts to calculate the difference directly fails - which makes sense to me.
I'm guessing I'll have to isolate these values, convert and calculate elapsed time. The noon and midnight rollovers (12hr clock) is also something I have to deal with manually.
if you may not separate these values try it with formula:
=MOD(MID(A1,FIND("- ",A1)+2,99)-LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1)-1),1)
The MOD function works with all times but especially with midnight
rollovers
