I tried that and what I got was the current time. I need to enter many
different times into a database and really didn't want to have to type the
colon : for each time entry. Can you think of any other thing I might
try?
Thanks so much for responding

Try entering =NOW() and see what you get

If you want to enter times manually, enter 7:20 for example, not just a
number
The number will be interpreted as a date, 0:00h
You can check that in the formula bar
