I have an imported docment that stores the data as excel time. I need the data in seconds. I changed the format to [s]. This was great, exactly what I needed until I imported the document in to Access. Access changed the data back to time format. So here is my question: Is there any way to paste [s] data and save it as an text? or Is there a formula that I can change the data into seconds? I have searched the forum for a couple of days and went to the formula help page, but there was nothing that addressing my issue.
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).
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).
I have a report that tells me how many items are completed every "x" seconds for a person. What I would like to do is when I enter that information into my spreadsheet is to have it calculate those seconds into minutes and seconds. (i.e. I will enter 105 (seconds) into a cell and I want it to display 1:45. Is there a formula or setting in the cell format that can do this? The problem I am going to have is that I will have to enter in each cell as seconds every time and then need it to convert to the minute and second format.
I have the below macro. It is used to translate time to seconds (i.e. 0:20:04 minutes to 1204 seconds) This works well, but i just want to know 3 things. First, can the new data (seconds value) be added to new worksheet (worksheet 4) of the workbook the original data is taken from, instead of a whole new workbook? Second, can this be done without having to save the original workbook first? Third, (Im sorry i know this is VERY simple) but this macro is part of a larger macro, and i just want to know the code to hide the screen updating as the macro is running.
Sub Refresh() Columns("A:A").EntireColumn.Select Application.CutCopyMode = False Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=ActiveCell, DataType:=xlFixedWidth, _ FieldInfo:=Array(0, 4), TrailingMinusNumbers:=True End Sub.........
I have a formula that gives me a time value (ie 12:53). I need to perform another formula that will use this data but I need the numbers seperated (12 in one cell and 53 in another)
In essence, what would be the formula to pull off the minutes number and the seconds number into individual cells. I know anything is possible in Excel, I just can't figure this one out.
I have an ACD program that gives me a time in "mm:ss" format, or in ":ss" fomat. I have 2-3 problems with charting this data.
1 I am inheriting the production of charts from someone else, with old data being displayed by seconds only I am supposed to keep this display.
2 the data that is in mm:ss format is recognized as being in full date format, for example 2:14 is recognized as 2:14:00 AM instead of 2 minutes, 14 seconds.
3 the data that is in :ss, ie :44, is recognized as a string.
Any thoughts on how I can convert both cases to a integer seconds? I know for example that I could mid() the second condition, but I am stuck thinking about the first condition.
I can't adjust the way the time comes in, unfortunately. It is an auto-generated export of the data from a switch.
I currently have a lot of times saved in an excel file that are in seconds for example 245.9 seconds. Need formula where i could have in the next cell to it where it would say 4 minutes 5.9 seconds.
I have very little experience with Excel. What I am trying to do is to convert a timecode in this format 00;22;21;00 that is 22 min 21 sec and 00 frames to a serie of numbers that I have hard time to figure out. Example
00;22;21;00 = 13410000000
I want to be able to paste the timecode from premiere 2.0 (00;22;21;00) into a Excel cell that would automaticly convert it to (13410000000) so that i can eventualy generate a .txt file that would look like this:
I trying to figure a formula to convert time on a phone call eg. 01:01:21 into total seconds (3661). Phonecalls will never be more than an hour long but the spreadsheet I will be supplied with (havn't got it yet!) will display them in the 00:00:00 format.
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 only one column (A) with thousands of cell entries. Each Cell contains a date and time. (x/xx/xxxx 12:34:56)
For example, Cell A1 = 1/24/13 18:45:22
I want the new cells to only have the time, but have the seconds removed (and not simply hide the seconds). This is because I'll need to run Conditional Formatting to find every cell with a similar time - but I only need similar times within the same minute...it doesn't matter if the seconds are off.
The new cell should just be A1 = 18:45
The real reason I need this is because I need to find every entry that has the same time (with hour and minutes), which I figure I'd use conditional formatting for. My problem is that many entries have the same time but the seconds are off.
In this example, I'd want Conditional Formatting to highlight cell A2 and A3 because they have the same time of 18:45 (not including the seconds). I figured the best way to go about this would be to remove the date and remove the seconds, and run the search that way. However, any way to accomplish goal without deleting the date and seconds would be just as useful.
How can I format cells to contain Minutes, Seconds and Hundredths of seconds to be used in calculations eg 1.24.99 means 1 minute and 24.99 seconds. Example calculation is: 1.24.99 - 1.24.90 =0.0.09
I am processing a fair few Invoices, which are being sent to me via e-mail as excel documents, very often they contain mistakes, a decent amount of mistakes. Usually the prices are wrong.
I keep track of every single entry on the invoice on my own document - Tracker, which I consider to be the superior/more correct document to the Invoice presented to me by my contractor.
Both of the documents have a reference number, which is a specific docket number, and horizontally, in the invoice, there is going to be a price for this docket. In my document, there is going to be a separate column for the total price.
Is it possible (I guess with VBA) to check for mistakes in the Invoice, but use the Tracker as a reference for this check.
Tracker has columns A - Name B - Department C - Date D - Docket No. C - Total price for the docket (calculation of E to Z) E to Z - all smaller entries
Invoice has columns A - Date B - Docket No. C to E price for that docket, but it is spread, because departments are separated out, so each VAT account can be charged accordingly. I guess it is possible to do a separate column for the price, if it is easier to do a script that way.
Basically, I need to check if in the Invoice document, the price (C to E) for Docket No. (B) is the same as the price (C) for the Docket No. (D) in the Tracker.
I would like the wrong entries to be highlighted on the Invoice Document, so I can see straight away, that this needs attention.
Not always the price is wrong, sometimes the Docket No. is spelled incorrectly (Dyslexic contractor), hence the highlighting.
I need a script that will turn a excel doc into a txt doc. Thats the easy part. The hard part (at least I think it is), is I need it to be in a certain format and I'll do my best to explain that fomat below.
I am my excel worksheet (excel 2010) I have one cell that changes every day (number). I want this number to open my htm document and replace the same number in a string in the htm and save/close this.
An example: My htm document is located at C:/ and named XX.htm
The number I want from excel is in cell A1 in sheet1, and the worksheet is located in D:/ named yy.xlsx
And the text(number) I want to replace is in the following string in the htm document, in this string it is 72, next day it can be 30:
