Code:
RcTime = CInt(Right(covertime.Value, 2))
LcTime = CInt(Left(covertime.Value, 2))
If RcTime < 0 Or RcTime > 59 Or LcTime < 0 Or LcTime > 24 Or covertime.Value > 2400 Then
    MsgBox "Please Enter in a Valid Time (0000-2400)", vbInformation, "Error Message"
    covertime.SetFocus
    Exit Sub
End If

Ok. I have a textbox where a user enters time (0000-2400). The above code will make sure that the user enters the right format.

My question is will it mess everything up if the user enters a time of 930 instead of 0930. My theory is that it will see the 2 integers as 93 and 30. If that is the case my code will reject their input and ask for another one even though it is correct.

Is there a way to detect if the integer is only 3 numbers and add a zero on. Or force the user to enter 4 numbers?

Thanks in advance.
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
Programaticaly add the leading 0's.

Code:
covertime.Value = Right("0000" & covertime.Value, 4)
RcTime = CInt(Right(covertime.Value, 2))
LcTime = CInt(Left(covertime.Value, 2))
