Yvonne,

Just add them, and format the result cell as time. Time is just a fractional
number in Excel, and it is the display for mat that makes it look like time.

If you enter the 3 times: 6:30, 5:30, 5:00 in say A1:A3
you could put in say, A4: =SUM(A1:A3)

Format A4 as Custom, Type: [h]:mm
to enable rollover of hours beyond 24
(with square brackets around the "h")
