MS excel issue

Hi,
I have data in Excel that looks like this:

00:00:10
00:00:20
00:00:40

The data format is ''General''

I want sum these times correctly, so it looks like this: 00:01:10.
It works fine when I do A1+A2+A3.

But when I use the SUM(A1:A3) command, the results are always 00:00:00. This happens no matter how I change the format (i.e. I have changed the results cell to General, TIME, or hh:mm:ss or [h]:mm:ss; and the data cells similarly).

I am using Excel 2003. Can you help?

Using a time format for the data cells and data that looks like 12:00:10 AM the result you want is displayed no matter which formula is used. If the date portion of the data cell is not deleted then the result is 00:00:00. Delete the date portion of your data cells to get the result you want. (For example: When I enter 10 into a cell that is formated for time xx:xx:xx it shows 1/11/1904 12:00:00 AM in the formula bar and 00:00:00 in the cell. When I delete 1/11/1904 in the formula bar and show only the 12:00:10 the cell shows 00:00:10. Then it makes no difference which formula you use.)
