Greetings ~

I am trying to create a Boolean condition with the value of a textbox which has its value expressed in "hh:mm:ss" format.

Below is the conditional statement which simply will not read correctly
Code:
If Format(.TextBox74.Text, "hh:mm:ss") > "3:00" Then
        .TextBox74.BackColor = vbGreen
      Else: .TextBox74.BackColor = vbRed
End If

The current value of TextBox 74 is 21:16 and yet it blows right past the 'then' and onto the 'Else'

Help??

Thank You ~
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
I'm truly not sure but is it possible that after setting your textbox 74 to hh:mm:ss, VBA thinks you have 00:21:16 which is smaller then 3:00:00?

If this is the possibility, you can try to solve by changing hh:mm:ss by hh:mm

Instead of this...

If Format(.TextBox74.Text, "hh:mm:ss") > "3:00" Then

try this...

If CDate(.TextBox74.Text) > #3:00# Then
