Default Time calculations & text conversions

Hi there,

I have a spreadsheet that gets filled in regularly and has a time(eg 456:56)
that keeps on accumulating.....this time is exported to a text file when the
worksheet is saved.

When a new master worksheet is opened, the text file is imported.....but I
have 2 problems :-

1. I am battling to get the computer to convert the text data type
back into a time data type; and
2. I need to be able to add to the time, which is over 24 hours. The
regular formatting thinks the the time must stop at 24 hours and therefore
produces incorrectly formatted data.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Kenny
