Default Validation Confusion-Excel 2003

On a timesheet I need to ensure that when I enter in the times of a the DAY
shift that it is on or after 6:00 am. The finish time is not important as
the start time dictates the shift. For example, someone may start at 7:30
and work thro to 3:30 (or 15:50), this equals a day shift. I may have
someone else who starts at 6:00 am and finishes at 10:00 am, this also equals
a day shift.

I also need an AFTERNOON shift that starts at 12:00 (Noon). I believe if I
have the answer to the day, this will come easy to me (that is if the Noon
time doesn't become a hinderance??)

I also need a NIGHT shift that starts at 7:30 pm (or 19:50).

I also need a standup shift that starts up 21:50 and goes thro to 7:30 the
next morning

These times then need to give me an answer of how many hours they have worked.

When I tried it out on the existing timesheet with a validation rule in
place, it changed the format of the times to reflect something similar to
0.38 (start time) and 0.67 (finish time).

Many thanks to all those who respond.

I believe your answers (0.38 (start time) and 0.67 (finish time)) need
to be formatted as Time. In this format, 0.38 returns 9:07:12 AM and
0.67 returns 4:04:48 PM

Many thanks Bruce. I did know, but couldn't get it to work, that you needed
to format back to time. But when I read your reply, I went in formatted the
start/finish time using the Custom settings of hh mm.

Thank you again - now I need to get the next part solved.
