Default Time Formatting

I am trying to speed up the rate that people can enter information into a
spreadsheet. I don't know exactly how to describe this... so I'll give a few
examples.


When someone types in '8-4', Excel changes the field to '4 Aug'. Instead,
I'd like it to read as '8:00 AM - 4:00 PM'. More examples below


Entered Desired
8-4 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM
1-5 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM
7-3:30 7:00 AM - 3:30 PM


I tried to format the cells to do this for me, but I can't figure it out. I
could do this in Access, but Excel doesn't have any VB coding as far as I can
tell. I know that accomplishing this is probably overly complicated, but if
anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Nick
