=NOW()+A1/24 and format as date,
but of course that will update next time you open the sheet.
[I assume that you would have told us if you were looking at some limited
number of working hours in a day so I have allowed 24 hours in a day.]

I am using excel 2000 and I have a worksheet I am trying to use for
projecting completion times and dates on projects. I would like to be able
to
enter a number of hours in a cell such as A1 and have the worksheet
project a
new date in B1 based on todays time and day plus the hours I entered in
A1
