Default convert number to date format

I have an Excel file with a Time column formatted as a general number (e.g.
830, 1102, 805). I need to convert these numbers to a time format like 8:30,
11:02, and 8:05.

I've tried =TEXT(a2,"h:mm"); however, it only returns a zero. These data
will be imported into a time formatted field in Access and later used to
determine the difference between schedule delivery time versus actual
delivery time.

Any assistance on how to convert this field would be very helpful. Thanks!
