Default Entering Times

Actually that won't work. The times may not be entered until a few hours or
even the next day.

What's the right time? If you use the built in clock you can set validation
within a few minutes of that time, datavalidationallowcustom

=AND(D1<=TIME(,10,)+MOD(NOW(),1),D1=MOD(NOW(),1)-TIME(,10,))


where D1 would be the cell where the time entry is made

you can setup your own validation message

Incorrect Time! Please check your watch again!

...
I have a spreadsheet that has the following columns:

Arrival Time Triage Time To ED Time Saw MD Time Discharge

Time

I have about 15 people entering data in this worksheet at different times.
There a a few that can't quite get the numbers entered right - example.

The patient will arrive at 10:30 but they may enter a time that they were
taken to the ED at 8:30 - two hours before they are even here!! I have
talked to these people and told them that they need to watch the times

that
they are entering and make sure that they are accurate.

Is there a code/way to set the worksheet up so that if they enter a time
that is wrong it won't let them enter. I have tried Validation - time -
allow greater than or = to. That won't work.

Thanks for any help.
