Extract Data With Differing Date Formats - Convert Text To Date

Mar 27, 2013

Extract data with differing date formats that I need to convert to something consistent that I can format as a date.

This is an example of data.... all with general format at the moment.

12/17/2012 11:59:49 AM

I have used this formula to extract the date portion, but I can't get this to then format as date. How do I convert this to the julian date, so I can then apply a date format?

=LEFT(G9,SEARCH("/",G9)+7)

(The day portion of this date always has a leading zero).

Date Formats In A Cell Which Also Contains Text

Nov 29, 2013

I need to change the date format in a cell which also contains text.

The full formula is as follows:-
="Report period:
"&TEXT(Control!B9,"dd mmmm yyyy")&" - "&TEXT(Control!B10,"dd mmmm yyyy")

This gives me the following:-
Report period:
01 October 2012 - 30 September 2013

What I would like to have is the following:-

Report period:
1st October 2012 - 30th september 2013

It's only a minor change but I think it looks better. Without a hideously complicated formula, if this is possible using one of the standard cell formats?

Excel 2013 :: Extract Date And Time Info From A Text Cell That Contains Text And Date And Time

Jul 19, 2014

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.

Convert A Text Date Into A Proper Date

Jan 9, 2009

I have a column of dates in thie format " January 5 03:09:36 2009" which i need to convert into a proper excel date that i can do further calculations on (adding up things, graphs etc based on dates).

Note the space before the month name. I thought about doing a left(cell,xx) to get it but that isnt going to work with the space infront and the variable length of month names.

I do not necessarily need the time included, it may be useful at some point if its easy to keep it as part of the data, if not i can live without it.

Convert Date As Text To Actual Date

Jan 22, 2009

I've been sent a spreadsheet in which one column represents dates, but they have been entered as plain text, MM/DD/YYYY (ie 12/31/2008). I ultimately need to import this as a CSV into a program that only understands dates in the format DD/MM/YYYY.

I'd ideally like excel to recognise this field as containing dates, but I can't figure out how to do that, or even how to swap the days and months around as text. I'm using 2007.

Extract Date From Text

Dec 26, 2013

Any formula that can extract from a time stamp text string, which looks as follows: 7/8/2013 7:10:33 AM.

The tricky bit is saying anything before the first "/" represents the month, anything between the 1st and 2nd "/" represent the date, and the 4 digits after the second "/" represents the year.

Extract AM / PM As Text From Date / Time?

Oct 19, 2010

I have a column of times, that are actually dates of 1/0/1900 plus time, from which I want to extract the AM or PM status. I can format it to show this, but it's really just a fraction of a day. I need the actual text "AM" or "PM", not a decimal value.

Is there a formula to do this?

Extract Date & Time From Text

Aug 9, 2007

i currently have a table/template in which external data is pasted... however there are 2 colums titles DATE and START TIME (amongst others) now although where the data is pasted from the information is in the correct format. After the information is pasted both the columns have exactly the same information in them. I'm pretty sertain the only reson for this is that the source the records/data actually comes from formats them on the screen differently to how the records are stored on the database using code....

so after the expanation which hopefully made sense is there any way i could convert a record like this

Thu Jun 28 21:54:33 GMT 2007 (this is how the information is pasted into the 2 columns)

to both

28/06/2007 for the DATE column
and
21:54:33 for the START TIME column

the cell format makes no difference because the information is both text and numbers....

How To Extract Month From Date Which Is In Text Format

November 7, 2012 6:33:13 AM GMT+05:30

[code]......

I need another column, with just the month specified there based on above dates, so that I can manipulate the complete sheet further using a pivot. Some formatting issue isn't allowing me to use month() function, to derive the month of the date mentioned in the cell.

Using Auto-filter is too tedious, since I'd have to do it 12 times to cover each of the month. Tried recording a macro, but that too isn't supporting much, since it gets specific to cells and hence isn't re-usable in another sheet with similar data.

How can I automate the task of extracting just the month from the above column?

Convert Imported Date / Time Data To Date / Time Format?

Jan 2, 2013

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).
