Thanks for the thought Steve.
Unfortunately, that's the obvious answer I've played with, but it doesn't
work along with a few other tried.

There is now also, an Excel version of the Snippet inside the archive at
the address given yesterday, and FWIW I can't sort it in Excel either.

Thanks

6|     Date     8:15    12:15        4:00       4:0

7|     Date     9:10    11:25        2:15      6.15

8|     Date     9:30    12:15        2:45       9:0   


The formatting is identical for the whole of column J in the form of h:mm
Changing it to h:mmmm or 0.00 nor even 0:00

I guess something in the formula needs modifying so that if the hour is a
full hour with no minute increments it displays as  h:00

My brains is pudding from messing with this...
