Question : Formatting Time Values

Hello Experts!

I have a form that contains 3 text boxes.  In the table view, I have them set to be "date/time" typed data.  But I would like to force the user into typing the time values a certain way.

For example, these are the only ways I would like it to be accepted...

1.)  0:05 (5 minutes)
2.)  1:00 (1 hour)

I would prefer to 'avoid' typing the ":" cause that would be annoying.

Also, if this is possible - can I also disable the "date picker" icon thing from appearing?  It will be

Answer : Formatting Time Values

Hello GNOVAK

for the first question: add a data series to your chart. The series should have as many cells as there are days in your chart. Set the first cell to 0, leave the middle cells blank and set the last cell to your target value. You can do that by simply using

=Sheet2!A1

or where ever your target data is. Specify in your chart settings that empty cells should be plotted and connected with a line. This way, you'll see a line from day1 at zero to day30 at target.

I don't really understand your second question. As Cyberkiwi has suggested, post some data to work with. If need be, draw the chart with the drawing tools to illustrate what you want.

cheers, teylyn
