To support the entry of seconds, change your formula to:
=IF(F4="","",IF(F4<100000,TIMEVALUE(LEFT(F4,1)&": "&mid(f4,2,2)&":"&RIGHT(F4,2)),TIMEVALUE(LEFT(F4,2 )&":"&mid(f4,3,2)&":"&RIGHT(F4,2))))
If you want to support all entries (ie, hmm, hhmm, hmmss, hhmmss), your formula
would be:
=IF(F4="","",IF(F4<1000,TIMEVALUE(LEFT(F4,1)&":"& RIGHT(F4,2)),if(f4<10000,TIMEVALUE(LEFT(F4,2)&":"& RIGHT(F4,2)),IF(F4<100000,TIMEVALUE(LEFT(F4,1)&":" &mid(f4,2,2)&":"&RIGHT(F4,2)),TIMEVALUE(LEFT(F4,2) &":"&mid(f4,3,2)&":"&RIGHT(F4,2))))))
It's ugly but it works.

Hello,
I have a TimeValue formula that works well for hh:mm, but I also need
to expand this to hh:mm:ss, and I've tried several times to get this
right, but can't seem to come up with the proper combination. Here's
the one that works:
=IF(F4="","",IF(F4<1000,TIMEVALUE(LEFT(F4,1)&":"&R IGHT(F4,2)),TIMEVALUE(LEFT(F4,2)&":"&RIGHT(F4,2))) )
With the above formula in F5, if I enter 1234 in cell F4, then in cell
F5 I get 12:34. I need to be able to enter 123456 to get 12:34:56.
Thanks.
Frank
