I've writing excel formulas to convert Decimal Degrees (DD) to Degrees Minutes and Seconds (DMS) and back again for astronomy. These are for converting DD angles for telescope Right Ascension (RA) and Declination Angles (DEC) pointing.
I've got the formulas to work except for one minor annoyance. Try this formula for converting DEC DD angle of -1.5° to a DEC DMS angle: ....

I had a similar problem a day or two ago in converting Deg Min.dec to Deg.dec and it has happened again. This time I want to convert Degrees Minutes & Seconds to Degrees.decimals.
The formula I am using works for a two digit number Lat. but not 3 Long.?? Here it is below:
=+IF(A2<>"",INT((LEFT(A2,3)+MID(A2,4,2)/60+MID(A2,7,4)/3600)*100000)/100000&"d","")

View 4 Replies View RelatedHow do I custom format a cell to display degrees minutes seconds. I now there is a way. I found in on the web once but can not find it again. The formating from cpearson does not work the way i want.
For example if in cell a1 I input 50.2536, I want to to format the cell as 50° 25' 36". opefully this can be applished without any formulas. Either soem code or formating would be great. The last time I found it I thought it was something like ###° ??'/??" but that did not work. Thanks in advance. The reason I need it, is to use the convert_decimal function I found on the microsoft website.

View 9 Replies View RelatedThe problem I am having is in trying to make a custom cell format for inputting my data. I want it to appear as 44° 41' 5" (in the same cell). I would like the cell to function so that if im inputting data manually for it to automatically put in the appropriate (degree,minute or second marks). That way I could just enter somthing like 44 41 5 and it display properly. Also I am trying to keep the data in text format for another marco I am running to convert the DMS data into decimal.

I am trying to convert Degrees Minutes & Decimals of a minute (12° 34.567') to Degrees and decimals of a degree (12.57611°). I have the formula to convert latitude, that is two digits, but it doesn't want to work with longitudes, three digits. (see attachment). This is the formula that I am using:
=IF(A2="","",(INT((LEFT(A2,3)+MID(A2,4,6)/60)*100000)/100000)&"d")

I have two columns A and B. Column A contains problem title and column B is duration minutes. In column B we enter always min and seconds it took us to resolve certain issues (22.15 = 22 minutes and 15 seconds) . At the end of the month I need to run a report for my manager to show her by problem title how long it took my group to resolve issues and it should output as Hours/min/days.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWorking on a project and using a formula like this just so we can get the degree sign:
=TEXT(ROUND(DEGREES(ATAN2((C6-C30)/2,A25)),1),"0.0")&CHAR(176)
This obviously results in a text value.
How can I dump the TEXT function and the CHAR function and format the cell to display the degree sign and still be a numeric data type?
I have a spreadsheet that is so long ie columns that i have decided to flip it over so that my old row titles are now column headings and my column heading are now row titles.
The reason for this is that I need to enter more that 256 columns into my worksheet matrix and I only have 209 rows thus light bulb moment turned the whole spreasheet 90 degrees within the worksheet!
i am trying to finish a spreadsheet off using cos functions. I want to convert 26 degrees into 0.8988. when i use my hand calculator i type 26 in then press cos and it converts it to 0.8988 which is correct, but when i try to use the excel cos function it gives 0.646919322 which is in-correct.

I am trying to convert a number of "hours" "minutes" and "seconds", to give me a result in seconds only, in order that I may then financially cost the amount of time spent on a task. (A time and motion costing exercise)
Example:
1119:48:06
Represents 1119hours:48minutes:36seconds spent on a task.
I can manually convert this to 4031286 seconds, but it just takes too much time !!!(sorry!)
The data is extracted from a database which is unable to split the hours,minutes,seconds into seperate fields, which prevents me from using three cells in excel.
I have a spreadsheet that imports data relating to phone call durations. The information imports as a total number of seconds taken.
What I need to do is to change that number of seconds into hours, minutes and seconds.
Changing the format of the cells doesn't work.
I've tried everything I can think of, and run out of ideas.
example:
23 needs changing to 00:00:23
96 needs changing to 00:01:36
268 to 00:04:28
9374 to 02:35:14
I have a spread sheet with a colum showing average time to complete a task. This is currently shown as Days:Hours:Minutes:Seconds (4:19:33:19). I meed it to be shown purely as minutes, or at least as hours and minutes.
