title: Oracle ApexCreate Time field HH:MM
body: <p>I am having difficulty with a duration field on my form/table.</p>
  <p>The users need to indicate in <code>HH:MM</code> how long a meeting took.</p>
  <ol>
  <li><p>What datatype should the column have in the Table. Currently it is <code>TIMESTAMP</code></p>
  </li>
  <li><p>How can I make the field have an input mask of 'HH:MM'. What I would like is for the user to be able to type '0130' and the field format it to '01:30' immediately.</p>
  </li>
  </ol>
  <p>Reporting on these times is required so I assume that entering the data as <code>VARCHAR</code> will not help.</p>
