    Adding time values

    I changed the value from (h):mm to (hh):mm but the sum still will not go past 24hrs it reverts back to 0?:?? after passing a 24hrs period, I am trying to count the number of hours worked in a week period in hr:min value.
    Any ideas??

    Adding Time Values

    Adding Time Values

    Problem:

    When using a standard SUM formula to add the time values in column B (=SUM(B2:B5)), a false result of 4:23 is returned, rather than the actual sum of 28:23.

    Solution:

    Excel\'s default time format does not allow a time value to exceed 24 hours. This is the cause of the above error.
    To properly display a sum exceeding 24 hours, change the format of the cell from \"h:mm\" to \"[hh]:mm\".
