Default race results in minute:seconds.hundredth sec

You can either add the leading zero or the trailing zero.
0:1:23
or 1:23.0
will give 01:23.00

You may be safer formatting as [mm]:ss.00, as the square brackets will deal
with times beyond 60 minutes.

It works if there are minutes. If the results are less than a minute, it
converts it to hours. To get around this, all I can do is add leading
zeros.
If there is another way, let me know. Otherwise, we'll stay this this
approach.

thanks for your help...it is greatly appreciated.

I need to track and post race results using mm:ss.xx format. I also
need to
add/subtract times. Is there a function or format to do this?


Try the following custom format for your cell formatting.

mm:ss.00

Hope this helps / Lars-Åke
