    Re: Conditional Formatting Time...

    Are the entries time values like 72:00 or are they decimal numbers like 72?

    Try this...

    Let's assume the range to format is A2:A10.

    Select the *entire* range A2:A10 starting from cell A2.
    Cell A2 will be the active cell. The active cell is the
    one cell in the selected range that is not shaded. The
    formula will be relative to the active cell.

    Goto the Home tab>Styles>Conditional Formatting>
    Manage rules>New rule>Use a formula to determine
    which cells to format

    Enter this formula in the box below:

    =A2>3

    Click the Format button
    Select the desired style(s)
    OK out
