Inputting Time

P

parls

I am creating a time sheet database based on excel spreadsheets. The user is
used to entering start times and end times in a military format without
colons. For example: he enters start time as 630 and the data is converted to
6:30 am in another cell. I want to duplicate this action in access. I can't
figure out how.

Thanks,
parls

Perhaps you could have a second textbox and set the controlsource to:
=Left$(myTextbox,2) & ":" & Right$(myTextbox,2)
(of course you replace myObjectNames with yours)

I have a field where users put times in for the event. It's a text box and
they simply type in the value. Does anyone know of a clock control (like the
calendar control) that I could put in the form for them to enter a time
value? Thanks.
