Default display time in 12 hour format

i am working on a schedule for staff (office 2007) and i only have one issue
left. can i enter the time a 24 hour format and have it display in a 12 hour
format. not everyone understands the 24 hour clock, or they just do not wan
to learn it.

ex.

start time in A1 is 8:00 (8:00 AM,) it shows as 8:00
end time in B1 is 16:00 (4:00 PM,) but it shows just 4:00

i have the calculations on totalling the time and everything else, just need
to show the time in the 12 hour format.

thank you,

jat

in stead of formatting your cell as hh:mm, go up two options, to hh:mmAM/PM,
and that should do the trick
