Default totals

a1:OK. I have set up a workbook to see how long i work for.

The colum is in the format of hh:mm

wehn i put a =sum(a1:a5)

if i work say 10 hrs per day i would have worked 50 hrs, but this returns
02:00.

For every 24 hrs it then starts at 00:00 agen.

are you trying to add hours, or times? 5 hours + 5 hours = 10 hours, but 5
O'Clock + 5 O'Clock doesn't compute

Got it.

What i was trying to do was add a list of total times together. Say i worked
10 hrs a day for five days i have work a total of 50 hrs, whn i did the sum
below all i got was 50. The way to do it is to Format the celss as (Custom)
as [hh]:mm
