Creating custom field for start time
Would appreciate any help with creating a custom field for a start time for a meeting? Field would be start time and they should be able to enter 7pm or 10am etc. Wondering if there's a way to create some sort of 'time field' or whether a text field is the best option?
You have couple of options.
1) Create a field of type Date/Time, this field will contain both date and time component.
2) Create a picklist with value likes 07:00 PM, 07:!5 PM etc. with the time interval that you need.
3) Create Text Field with validation rules to ensure that only time is entered.
Hope this helps.

There is data type of Date/Time while creating custom field.
Just go to Create-> Object -> new Custom Field -> Give relevant name of field -> select Date/Time field type. There you go!!
