I'm struggling with numbers and time / date formatting...
Date how can I change 09:01:45:812 to 09:01:45? I tried few things but still get the infamous "!"
Numbers how can I change 0.7581 to 0.76? I didn't try anything yest - too scared of the infamous "!" 
Thank you!

For the second case try truncate(). It does not round but does truncate to the desired number of decimal places. If you round yourself before doing the truncate you get the desired result.
truncate(0.7581 , 2) result is 0.75
truncate(0.7581+0.0050 , 2) result is 0.76
truncate(0.7531+0.0050 , 2) result is 0.75

Thanks Lee... truncate() it is, I'm not worried about the +/- 1% :)
Any idea about the date one?

What is the source of the time value you want to remove the milliseconds from?
