There are a seemingly simple examples in the help tab, but for the life of
me, I can't get a simple cell format for minutes, seconds and thousndths of a
second to work properly. The cell number looks right, but I get some
*******ized date up in the input bar that doesn't match -- ultimatley I want
to add times.

Since you know how to format the cell in time or
you have to do is be careful with your input 7:52:00 NOT 7.52.00
you must use the double dots
