I have a cell with 6:44:04AM as a text, and I need to convert it to number, so far I have tried: =timevalue(a1). no luck, it returns, #value!
Tried to replace AM and PM with nothing, it convert it to number, but changes the value 12:50:30 AM gets converted to 12:50:30 PM. I even tried copy, paste special, vaues, nope, nothing.
I'm wondering how to code the conversion of a column (columns A, D, E and Q) from an Excel time to simple text. ie. time formatted 3:45 pm to text 3:45 pm.
I have a long date and time text value in a cell such as "2013/10/02 07:43:39.39", where the fractions of a second are very important.
I can use cdate([text]) to convert the text string to a value, but only if i omit the seconds fraction: "2013/10/02 07:43:39". Otherwise i get a type mismatch error.
Is there any way i can get the whole date/time string converted to a date value? The only way i can think to do it it at the moment is to convert the date/time, then divide the seconds fraction by 86400 and add the 2 values. Is there a better way?
Secondly, i have a large number of these date strings, typically >30k lines x 7 columns. Each string is preceded and trailed by a [space] character.
I can strip these extra spaces no problem. And, i can "loop" to perform it, again no problem. But it's going to take time to perform and i'd rather not if i can avoid it.
I have 04/02/08 12:00:01 AM (mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss AM/PM) in text format in a cell. I need to convert this to date/time custom format as given above so that I can make comparisons with NOW() output.
I need to convert regular time to decimal time. example regular time in A1 is 1:38 I need that number to be converted to decimal time = to 13:63. add 12 to the hour and divide 38 into 60 to get the minutes. Our time clock prints on a 12 hour basis and I enter to excel in decimal time.
I need a simple formula to convert standard time (1:05pm) into military time (13:08).
I've read through several posts, but all I've found is reformatting or time subtraction type information. The reformating works to an extent, it gives me the hours in military but the minutes stay standard.
Basicly, all I need is:
Cell A1 = 1:05 p Cell B1 = formula that shows/converts 1:05 p as 13:08
I have a row of cells, and some of which are displaying time, but in an incorrect format.
for example 15:20 is showing in a cell as 3.2
How can I create a new cells that basically converts 3.2 into 24 hr hh:mm ....e.g. 15:20?
If I got to use the format cells option, and hh:mm, it changes the cell to the completely wrong time (i.e 04:48) ?
p.s. I should state that "some" of the cells are kind of showing the correct time, albeit with a decimal instead of a colon, for example, cell A12 is showing 4.25
one other thing I should mention.....the times will always be PM...... so 3.2 should be 15:20, and not 03:20
When I am converting a time from Hours/Minutes to Hours/Tenths, Excel is not converting it consitantely. EXAMPLE: 1:15 = 1.25. When I format the cell to present only one place past the decimal point, sometimes the cell will round up to 1.3, and other times it will round down to 1.2. What am I missing?
I have loaded a .csv file in which the first column contains date/times, e.g. 01/12/2012 00:00. How do I now tell Excel (2010) that this is in fact a date/time format? If I select one or more of the cells, click on the Number dialog box launcher and try to pick a suitable format tghe cells resolutely refuse to budge from being text (i.e. left-justified, still allows me to edit the 'seconds' component to a number > 60). Also which data type should I be using? The only one that appears to have a full date/time format listed is Custom (not Date or Time).
I am using Excel 2013. Anyway, the first issue is that I need to pull a date and a time period from text. So, for example, if I see something like Sunday Prime Time 7/6/14 8:37PM, I would want to pull ONLY the "7/6/14 8:37PM" out of it. Each text box could potentially be different, so it might not always be in the same format as "Sunday Prime Time 7/6/14 8:37PM" it might only show just the date and/or the time without all the extra text i.e. 7/6/14 8:37PM. Some of the cells will have text, others might only have just the time or even just the date and the time. The only thing that I am worrying about in each cell is extracting just the date and time. If this is too much to ask of excel, I would be ok with extracting ONLY the time - 8:37PM and not the date, but I would much rather be able to get both the time and date.
THEN, onto part two of my question. After I would pull the dates and times, I need to compare them with each other. So, when I have the same date with two separate times on that date, I need to write a formula to show if those times on that date are less than 30 minutes apart. So, if I have 6 times on 7/6/14, I need to know if any of them are less than 30 minutes apart.
I would need to have the formula say something like "Problem" if the times on 7/6/14 would be 5:30PM, 5:48PM, 7:00PM, 8:00PM, 8:15PM, and 9:00Pm for example. I would like to see the word "Problem" since 5:30PM and 5:48Pm is only 18 minutes apart, and "Problem" after 8:15PM since that is only 15 minutes past the 8:00PM which is obviously under 30 minutes. The times that are more than 30 minutes apart such as 7:00PM and 9:00PM for example are more than 30 minutes apart from any of the other times that were extracted.
I have the following two columns, and would like to obtain for each individual Company, the corresponding Country values excluding duplicates as text in a single cell.
Company 2Country B Company 2Country C Company 3Country C Company 3Country C Company 5Country A Company 5Country C Company 5Country C
For example: - For Company 2, a cell containing "Country B, Country C" - For Company 3, a cell containing "Country C" - For Company 5, a cell containing "Country A, Country C"
I've approached generating an array using an IF statement, as in =IF(INDEX(A1:A8="Company 5",,),INDEX(B1:B8,,)," "), which returns the following array: ={" ";" ";" ";" ";" ";" ";" ";"Country A";"Country C";"Country C";" ";" ";" ";" "}.
The question is: how do I get that array to produce, as text in a cell: "Country A, Country C". Note that the duplicate Country C has been removed.
There are a few "StringConcat" User-defined functions that I've found elsewhere on the internet, but they don't seem to be able to handle to conditionally generated IF Index array, which I would think is key to parsing between Countries corresponding to each Company in the list.
Programming Excel VBA Macro to do OCR (text recognition) from a prt scr screen capture image and input the text into cells. Currently my Excel file has a push-button, and upon clicking on it the macro pastes into Excel the current clipboard image I have created by pressing prt scr while in another program. The macro then crops the image to the region with the applicable text. I have to then manually type the text I see in image format into the appropriate cells.
the VBA coding to automate this? I'd like it to use the clipboard image and run it through OneNote OCR, after which the applicable text values are automatically entered into the cells. Ideally the code will first crop to the region with the desired text before it does OCR. If this is not feasible, it will need to incorporate a method (keyword search?) to hone in on the desired text after the entire prt scr image has been OCRed.
This is my problem: I have a series of data written as following 0:05 (minutes:seconds) BUT in Excel the cell format was set as h:mm. Thus 0:05 is supposed to be 5 seconds but Excel reads it as 12:05:00 AM.
I need to convert everything to just seconds (i.e 0:05 = 5).
Is there some way to write a formula that would convert these time values (usually in a HH:MM:SS format) into a "minute" value (by rounding 30 seconds or more up to an additional "minute" as well as multiplying each hour by 60 minutes which will all be added to the MM or "minute" format for a grand total of how many minutes were involved with each transaction)?
When I try to re-format the data it changes to a date/time format which makes no sense.
Here is a sampling of some of the data I am trying to calculate:
if a1 has a value of 60 then b1 will read 60m minutes if a2 has a value of 120 then b2 will read 180minutes ie a running total of a1 +b1. i need the time in the column b to keep on accumalating even if i delete the value in a1. ie if a1 is deleted b2 will still say 180 minutes
I have imports with several values listed as :00. I am unable to adjust the import or export to make these values 0:00 as they should for calculating. How can I convert the :00 values to 0:00? Its literally just like I need to add a 0 zero in front of the colon ":". This is the case with anything imported that is less than 1:00 minute. I have :55 that should be 0:55 and so on. I have tried re-formatting for different time values, tried various formulas that were listed in the forums.
I know how to do this in a worksheet: =(b1-a1)*1440. B1 being the end time and A1 being the start time. I have a userform where the start time and end time are entered in text boxes. txtstart1 and txtend1. I would like the result to show up in txtmin1. Here is my code that doesnt work. I tried to convert code from a non-time sheet of mine. Dim as Integer may be the problem, I just learn as I go, and so far have only dealt with Integers.
Is it possible to convert the following data to an Excel-recognized time format (easily, as I have numerous million-row files with time data like this). Some actual data is below with what it should be in parentheses.
Have a large spreadsheet with time posted in minutes, but is formatted as "general" not time. (ie 8.15 is the entry in general format. Needs to be 8.25 to pay employee correctly). What formula can I use to convert that 8.15 to 8.25 easily?
