Default Time Format

hi
if it will not change then maybe excel as converted it to text.
look in the formula bar for a leading apostrophe. if there then try and
delete it.
if it wont delete, try a different date format before you delete like
06/20/2008 02:41 PM

Hi

I have a spreadsheet with time in two date time formats

20/06/2008 02:41 PM

&

15:01:00

I have tried to format the first on to hh:mm:ss

But it does not change
How can I get the value to actually be stored as 14:41:00 (i would be happy
for the seconds to be 00)

Many thanks

Colin
