How do I use the colon without it converting to time. For example when I
enter 1:2, it automatically converts to 1:02? |

I think you may need to set the number format for those cells to text.
FormatCellsNumber tab Category: Text Alternatively, the Fraction number format may work for you. Does that help? *********** Regards, Ron "Molly" wrote: How do I use the colon without it converting to time. For example when I enter 1:2, it automatically converts to 1:02? |
