Default Help with Conditional Formating Time


I have various deadlines and I have formatted my cells to have a Green
background if the deadline is met. So the first condition is "Less than
or Equal to." The cell turns red if the deadline isn't met, so the
condition is "Greater than."

I would type in 12:51 as the conditional value and not worry about a.m
or p.m. The numbers are converted to something like 0.03546666.

Things have been going along great until I got into early a.m. times,
but now I'm having problems. If I type in 12:51 as the conditional
value and 11:20 as the actual I should get a green background, but I'm
getting red.

It doesn't seem as if AM or PM should make a difference in the outcome,
but something strange is going on. I tried formatting the actual time as
PM, but that didn't make a difference.

Thanks for any help.
