Comparing time greater than or less than

[vipster]

Hi there

Please can someone help me. How do I create an IF formula to find cells where the number of hours in one cell is more than the number of hours in another cell? eg one cell has 0.40 hrs and another has 02.25 hours - I want have an IF formula to say where 02.25hrs > 0.40 then type "FAILED" but I cant overcome the greater than problem on the hours which is giving me the wrong answer.

how are your times entered in the cells..

are they enterd as times
00:02:15

or as whole #s
2.25

yes that's it - I am using that formula but not getting the same result. What format are those cells in? All three cells of mine are in custom hh:mm

Thank you for your help - the format on one of the spreadsheets feeding the information was different. I have fixed it and used your formula above.
