    Problem with formatting time

    I have a timesheet that I've created in Excel (2k). In one location I display
    the time formatted as Custom, [h]:mm. In another location, I need to take that
    value and display it as a regular number. Example:

    1st location: 16:00 hours (two work days) (totals of range of rows)
    2nd location: 16.00 (reference to 1st location)

    Currently I have plug the 2nd location in manually, because I can't figure out
    how to convert the time "16:00" to "16.0". If I just change the formatting used
    in the 2nd location, my "16:00" becomes "0.67".

    Can anyone help? Thanks in advance,

    Tom

    Time is stored as a fraction of one day, so just multiply by 24.
