Delete String Before Last Colon If No Text After Last Colon
Nov 29, 2012I found the following formula on another site that deletes all the text before the last colon (it deletes the colon as well)
=TRIM(RIGHT(M2,LEN(M2)-SEARCH("@#",SUBSTITUTE(M2,":","@#",LEN(M2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(M2,":",""))))))
Is it possible to modify it so that it only triggers if there is nothing after the last colon?
As you can see in the example below I have some notes entered by users and I would like to delete the ones where they didn't actually enter a note after the last colon:
11/05/2012 13:19:53 NEW MIKE : cld poe male sd cu not in till 3pm
10/18/2012 08:03:55 NEW HOSSEN : called no answer

11/14/2012 13:42:07 ACT MIKE : cld poe spk to cust sd cm back at 330
I would like to be left with just this instead:
11/05/2012 13:19:53 NEW MIKE : cld poe male sd cu not in till 3pm
10/18/2012 08:03:55 NEW HOSSEN : called no answer

Time Format Why I Enter Colon Between The Hours And Minutes
Oct 28, 2007I have used the format [hh]:mm in a cell for 24 hr clock calculations. Why do I have to enter the numbers with a colon when I populate the cells? Is there a way to set it up so I just type in the four numbers and the colon between the hours and minutes populates itself?

Format Cell To Show % As The Number Type-in
May 1, 2014(3) examples when I type a number to a cell:
If I type a number "1", I want that cell to show 1.000% but not 100.000%.
If I type a number ".2", I want that cell to show 0.200% but not 20.000%.

I could use two cells one for number, other cell has a % mark. But I rather to format a single cell if it is possible.

Excel 2010 :: Unable To Recognize Cell That Contain Colon Correctly
Oct 4, 2011i have encountered a problem which happens when you write data that contain : in an excel sheet (i use excel 2010)
for instance if i enter to one of the cell 45:58 excel sees it as 01/01/1900 21:48:00 when i try to get the information by using a function i will get the wrong data for example typing in the different cell LEFT(Cell,5) will result 1.908
(i receiving the data from an outside source in this way and i need to make analysis)
i have noticed that the first 2 digits (21 in the example) are related to the number i have choosen in a 24 hour cycle for instance
24:58 will result 01/01/1900 00:58:00
26:58 will result 01/01/1900 02:58:00
48:58 will result 02/01/1900 00:58:00
Adding A Colon
Dec 30, 2009I am a basic excel user and what I want is to be able to add in a time and have the colon automatically entered for me. For example, I want to add 130 and have it come out to 1:30, or 1215 and have it come out to 12:15. Seems easy to me but I cannot figure it out.
Format To Show Specified Numbers
Aug 29, 2007I have a number format that I need assistance with:
The number format I need is 1234-000 or 1234-001
The normal number format is 1234-000, very rarely does the 1234-001 be used. So I would like the number format to left fill the left section 1234 and right fill the right section 001.
Entering Times Without A Colon
Oct 20, 2009I need to find a way to enter times into excel without having to use a colon.
The data I need in the cell is the hour, the minute, and either AM or PM. No seconds, which I believe is why Chip Pearson’s time VBA procedure doesn’t work for me, and I don’t know enough about VBA to change it for my needs.
So for example, I need to enter in times like 10:09 PM or 12:40 AM or 2:33 AM.
All my times will be entered into Column D.
I have done a ton of searching and tried several different solutions, but none of them allow me to put in AM or PM. If I just put 1009 into a cell with Chip Pearson’s macro, it will display as 10:09 AM, which is great if I need it to be AM. But if I need it to be PM, and I enter in “1009 p”, it will display as “1009 p”, neglecting the colon and not displaying the time correctly.
Does anyone have a solution where I can type in a 3 or 4 digit number (233 or 1240) and either “a” or “p” after it, and have it display as 2:33 PM or 12:40 AM?
I use Excel 2007, if it matters.
Start Colon To Be Visible
Aug 21, 2009I downloaded some data from an extarnal source to excel... the texts I get appear as 'TEXT' (mind the colons at start and end of TEXT).

I want the start colon to be visible.
