I guess you want to count-down a specified number of hours (and minutes).
You may do this as following:
1- Make a variable (lets say X)
2- Set the value of variable to the entered number of minutes (text1.text * 60 / 100)
3- Use timer with 60000 as interval (= one minute)
4- Let the timer subtract 1 from X each time it passes one minute
5- When X = 0, Trigger whatever you want...

I'm not sure why you're using a timer, but you can format time in 12 or 24 hour formats with the Format function - Format(Time$, "hh:mm:ss") or Format(Time$, "hh:mm:ss AMPM")
