    12 Hour with quarter hour intervals not working for drop down box.

    I've made a time sheet that calculates time based on the quarter how, but wanted to make things a little easier by having a drop down menu for the time interval entered. The data valuation list source setting is;

    7:00 AM, 7:15 AM, 7:30 AM, 7:45 AM, 8:00 AM, 8:15 AM, 8:30 AM, 8:45, 9:00 AM, 9:15 AM, 9:30 AM, 9:45 AM, 10:00 AM, 10:15 AM, 10:30 AM, 10:45 AM,11:00 AM, 11:15 AM, 11:30 AM, 11:45 AM, 12:00 PM, 12:15 PM, 12:30 PM, 12:45 PM, 1:00 PM, 1:15 PM, 1:30 PM, 1:45 PM, 2:00 PM, 2:15 PM, 2:30 PM, 2:45 PM, 3:00 PM, 3:15 PM, 3:30 PM, 3:45 PM, 4:00 PM, 4:15 PM, 4:30 PM, 4:45 PM, 5:00 PM, 5:15 PM, 5:30 PM, 5:45 PM, 6:00 PM, 6:15 PM, 6:30 PM, 6:45 PM, 7:00 PM,

    but it doesn't allow me to enter anything after 2pm because it seems to not allow anymore entries.

    Does anyone know a work around for this? Can I list the values in another place and still show up in the drop down menu?

    Please help.

    HI cstritmatter,

    Welcome to the Forum!

    Are you using a list with a list source - if so you should be able to have all the times?

    If you directly enter the times into the refedit (that's what that little box is called) the limit is 255 characters.

    List the times in a range of cells then use that range as the list source.

    I added another tab and entered the dates into individual cells and accomplished what I was trying to. Thanks for the help!
