Time entry macro

[Phrank]

Hello, I have the following VBA macro that allows a user to enter
times via the keypad (without having to enter the colon between hours
and minutes or seconds). The macro transforms a 3 to 6 digit number
into a time entry. It works great for the columns that I actually
want to enter times into (columns F and G); however, if I need to
change the data in any other column, that data also changes to a time
(for example, Column D is group number, and when I enter, say, 3, I
get an output of 12:03:00 AM). Is there a way in this macro (or
another route) to limit a range of what can/should change? Thanks.

Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As
Range)
Dim TimeStr As String

On Error GoTo EndMacro
If Application.Intersect(Target, Range("A1:AV10000")) Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub
End If
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then
Exit Sub
End If
If Target.Value = "" Then
Exit Sub
End If

Application.EnableEvents = False
With Target
If .HasFormula = False Then
Select Case Len(.Value)
Case 1 ' e.g., 1 = 00:01 AM
TimeStr = "00:0" & .Value
Case 2 ' e.g., 12 = 00:12 AM
TimeStr = "00:" & .Value
Case 3 ' e.g., 735 = 7:35 AM
TimeStr = Left(.Value, 1) & ":" & _
Right(.Value, 2)
Case 4 ' e.g., 1234 = 12:34
TimeStr = Left(.Value, 2) & ":" & _
Right(.Value, 2)
Case 5 ' e.g., 12345 = 1:23:45 NOT 12:03:45
TimeStr = Left(.Value, 1) & ":" & _
Mid(.Value, 2, 2) & ":" & Right(.Value, 2)
Case 6 ' e.g., 123456 = 12:34:56
TimeStr = Left(.Value, 2) & ":" & _
Mid(.Value, 3, 2) & ":" & Right(.Value, 2)
Case Else
Err.Raise 0
End Select
.Value = TimeValue(TimeStr)
End If
End With
Application.EnableEvents = True
Exit Sub
EndMacro:
MsgBox "You did not enter a valid time"
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

I would suggest that you post to microsoft.public.excel.programming rather
than to this ng which is for Word.

Darn, my apologies. I simply clicked on the wrong ng in my list and
didn't notice. Thanks.
