Default Change hh:mm to hh.mm

An amendment to my first post.

If you do change the time separator......................

You must always enter time as hh.mm.ss or Excel will interpret as a decimal
number if entered as hh.mm

Is there a simple way change teh hour: minute separator in time formatted

much simpler and quicker using the decimal point.
Suggestions appreciated

Thanks
