    Converting time in excel

    I'm working on a time sheet.
    I have hours worked in decimal eg 7.5
    I also have negative -7.5

    How do I convert this into 7:30 and -7:30??

    Many thanks

    Emyr

    You can use negative times if you switch to the 1904 date system

    =A1/24
    Custom format result cell as hour

    Thanks
    I've tried that and it works, some think that it may cause problem when sharing document with others?

    How about this?

    =TRUNC(A1,0)&":"&TEXT((MOD(A1,1))*60,"00")
