time format
For some very strange value of "best". :-(

time format
Here is a revision that allows more entries to be parsed correctly for being
a time value. For example, you can enter 3p, 3:00, and so on as before; however, you can also enter things like 934, 1723, 1234p, etc.; that is, if it is missing the colon, the colon will be inserted and then, if the entry can be made into a date at all, it will be, otherwise an error message will be issued. Try it out on varying "time" values to see what I mean. Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim T As String If Target.Count 1 Then Exit Sub With Target If Not Intersect(Target, Range("D:G")) Is Nothing Then On Error GoTo CleanUp Application.EnableEvents = False T = .Value If T Like "*[aApP]" Then T = Replace(T, "a", " AM", , , vbTextCompare) T = Replace(T, "p", " PM", , , vbTextCompare) ElseIf T Like "*[AaPp][mM]" Then T = Left(T, Len(T) - 2) & " " & Right(T, 2) End If If Not IsDate(T) And InStr(T, ":") = 0 And Len(T) 1 Then T = Left(T, InStr(T & " ", " ") - 3) & ":" & _ Mid(T, InStr(T & " ", " ") - 2) End If T = WorksheetFunction.Trim(T) If IsDate(T) Then .Value = CDate(T) Else MsgBox "That is not a real date!" End If End If End With CleanUp: Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "Mike H" wrote in message ... Bingo!!! we are not worthy Nice code.

Also, I had forgotten to include the On Error Goto test (you should also consider incorporating this into your code too).

I also took the opportunity to add an extra measure of protection for the user entering too many spaces (not completely sure it is required, but adding the extra code insures it doesn't matter). The code should now function correctly with 12p or 10:08p. -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "Mike H" wrote in message ... Rick, It's not my approach .Note my comment:- IMHO I'd enter times correctly but perhaps that's just me!! I think the multiple types of input the OP propsed dictate the approach.

time format
Here is a modification of the code I posted earlier which I believe does
what you are asking for. If the entry you make can at all be converted to a time value, it will be. Give it a try and let me know if this does what you want. Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim T As String If Target.Count 1 Then Exit Sub With Target If Not Intersect(Target, Range("D:G")) Is Nothing Then On Error GoTo CleanUp Application.EnableEvents = False T = .Value If T Like "*[aApP]" Then T = Replace(T, "a", " AM", , , vbTextCompare) T = Replace(T, "p", " PM", , , vbTextCompare) ElseIf T Like "*[AaPp][mM]" Then T = Left(T, Len(T) - 2) & " " & Right(T, 2) End If If Not IsDate(T) And InStr(T, ":") = 0 And Len(T) 1 Then T = Left(T, InStr(T & " ", " ") - 3) & ":" & _ Mid(T, InStr(T & " ", " ") - 2) End If T = WorksheetFunction.Trim(T) If IsDate(T) Then .Value = CDate(T) Else MsgBox "That is not a real date!" End If End If End With CleanUp: Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "art" wrote in message ... Thanks for responding, but I decided that the best way is to enter the time without the : symbol. Like 944a. Can you make the code for that please? I found a page that lets me do that but it goes until 24 hours and does not let me enter p or a. Please help.

End If End If Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub However, when I delete anything, the pop up window comes up to enter a "a" or a "p".
