I have a Column that stores a cumulative time value as 95:31:00 (for example) that is of the format [h]:mm:ss. I am needing to convert this to a Text / String value which i know can be done using the worksheet function Text(timeval, "[hh]:mm:ss"), but i am curious if the same can be accomplished programmatically using VBA. I have the following code but it keeps inserting the value as a datetime format instead of a string? The Timestring is not returning as an actual string value capturing the values as "[hh]:mm:ss". What am i Doing Wrong?

VBA Code:
Sub DataCleanse()
    Dim RowNum As Long
    Dim CpH As Double
    Dim StatDate As Date
    Dim EomFlag As Integer
    Dim TimeString As String
    
    
    StatDate = "05/22/2020"
    EomFlag = 0
    RowNum = 2
    For RowNum = 2 To 19
        CpH = Round(Cells(RowNum, 13).Value / (Cells(RowNum, 11).Value * 24), 2)
        TimeString = WorksheetFunction.Text(Cells(RowNum, 11), "[h]:mm:ss")
        Cells(RowNum, 15).Value = CpH
        Cells(RowNum, 16).Value = StatDate
        Cells(RowNum, 17).Value = EomFlag
        Cells(RowNum, 33).Value = TimeString
    Next RowNum
End Sub

Before this line:
