Time Format Be Retained
Feb 20, 2009
I am struggling to cope with time (aren't we all).
I pick up a range of cells formatted on the worksheet as hh:mm. Put these into a macro and do some sorting. Then I place them on another worksheet but they arrive as time serials. The time serial appears as soon as the cells are placed in the macro.
How can I retain the hh:mm format from one worksheet to the next without having to manually reformat the cells?
Is there a VBA format method for individual array elements.

i have the required date as part of a string, which i need to pull out and then format it as "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss" and put it in another file which will be saved as .csv
Here is the code i am trying to modify without much success so far
Sub dateFormat()
Dim dtMydate As Date
Dim sMydate As String
Dim strWhen As String
strWhen = "As on 13-MAR-2007 14:45:59 Hours IST" ' the starting string
'strWhen = Cells. Find("As on")
'take out the date portion from strWhen
strWhen = Mid(strWhen, InStr(strWhen, "-") - 2, (InStr(strWhen, "Hours") - 1) - (InStr(strWhen, "-") - 2))
dtMydate = CDate(strWhen)
Debug.Print dtMydate 'returned value is 13/03/2007 2:45:59 PM
dtMydate = Format(dtMydate, "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss")
Debug.Print dtMydate 'returned value is again 13/03/2007 2:45:59 PM...

1. Open notepad file. Type 01. Save it as "Book2.CSV". Close notepad.
2. Open Book2.CSV in excel
You will see that 01 is shown as 1.
I would like to retain 01 in Cell A1. How do I do this in CSV?
I know how to retain formatting in excel but not in CSV. You can do the following in Excel files:
In the cell A1, right click and choose 'Format Cells'. In the Number tab, choose the category as Custom. In the Type on the right hand side, I type in 00. The value 1 in the cell A1 gets converted to 01.
My question:
1. why is this formatting not retained with CSV files?
2. Is there a way to programmatically (macros) to correct this?

I've got several proccedures all inside a single module where I declare 7 variables as Public before the start of the first proccedure.
My structure is something like this:
Public v1 as Variant
Public v2 as Variant
.
.
.
Public v7 as Variant
Sub Proc1
Call Proc2 (defines v2 as name of a file opened by a user; inside Proc1)
Call Proc3 (inside Proc1)
Call Proc4 (inside Proc3)
Call Proc5 (inside Proc5)
End Sub
Sub Proc6
Here I use v2
call Proc7 (inside Proc6)
End Sub
Variable v2 is uniquely named and is only used to hold a file's name so that I can call upon that file in various procedures. However, after Proc1 ends, Proc 1 retains the variable names of some of my Public variables, but not all, including v2, which I need!
I've tried going through this all step-by-step, no joy/nothing apparently obvious. I've also turned on Tools-Options-General-Notify Before State Loss but this isn't generating anything either.

I have problems with updating my ComboBox (old entires remain and keep adding up)- I have built my application from posts on this site
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Dim i As Integer
Sheets("DiagramAnk").ComboBox1.Clear
For i = 3 To 18
Sheets("DiagramAnk").ComboBox1.AddItem Sheets("DiagramAnk"). Cells(1, i).Text
Next
Sheets("DiagramAnk").ComboBox1.ListIndex = 0
End Sub
The code works if I remove the lines .Clear and .ListIndex=0
The list opions runs as Case in ComboBox1_Change()

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'm working on converting some databases. One has entries with normal human readable time format, the other uses the unix epoch time format.
Is there a function or vba code that I can use in excel to convert the normal time format to epoch time?
I've got a thousand or so entries, so it would be nice to find a way to do this on a large scale.

I have one column with as many as 50,000 or more rows. The data format for each row/ cell is unique as shown below ( date and time). I wanted to split the data as shown in "Formatted Data" below. Have Tried Text To Column formatting but didn't work right.
Raw Data: Formatted Data (2 cells):
2005/11/02 23:55:15.758 ==> 2005/11/02 23:55:15.758
2005/11/02 23:58:16.698 ==> 2005/11/02 23:58:16.698
2005/11/03 00:07:13.830
2005/11/03 00:10:14.971

I found a formula for calculating time in the HH:MM AM/PM
=IF(B1<A1,B1+1,B1)-A1
This formula was to give me total hours in the cell for which it is entered, and cell format for the formula was in military format.
I cannot find this post. The formula worked in OpenOffice Calc program, but when it came to converting to excel, I came up with #value!
I want to enter the time in 12 hour format and using am/pm to designate. I am making it for someone to make work schedules with and they do not know military time.

a formula that I could deduct one time from another and get an answer that gives me the total times in hours and minutes.
So in the case of a person starts work at 7:56:24 and finishes at 15:24:20 - What formula would I need to calculate the amount of hours and minutes worked.

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'm getting a time data on the format "0h 00m 00s" but I can't convert it to a standard "00:00:00" format to properly handle it and I'm not so Excel savvy. I already tried looking for something on google but the formulas for similar issues "0h 0s" or "0d 0h 0h" are not working (I can't find a way to adjust them). For example: I'm have the following data on G3:
0h 37m 52s
and I'm using the following TIME/FIND formula:
=TIME(FIND("h",G3),FIND("m",G3),FIND("s",G3))
but the outcome is "2:06:10" instead of "0:37:52"

I’m running a report on the average hold time of telephone calls. The data I extract for the report exports like this:
3:09
:00
:40
3:48
2:18
:12
:30
1:10
I need to re-format the cells to show like this:
3:09
0:00
0:40
3:48
2:18
0:12
If I only had 15 or 20, I would change them manually. But, this report has about 200 rows. And, I have 7 different reports to run.
I’m lost when it comes to making macros and using Visual Basic. Although, I can follow instructions and copy/paste.
The code mentioned in this thread: [URL] ....
[Code].....
Doesn’t work with this particular format. It’s changing the data to this:
03:09:00
:00
:40
03:48:00
02:18:00
:12
:30
01:10:00
:43
:52
01:32:00
02:07:00
:14
:00
How can I change the VB code to give me what I want?

I have been battling with this report I have been working with for sometime. Is there a way in Excel where I can automatically add zero into the time format?
The problem is I have to import data from another source and the time displays as a time format showing :59:00 insted of 0:59:00. Excel will not sum the calculation without the zero infront of the colon. This makes my report very time consuming. Can someone show me a way that I can automatcially add zero's infront when having data under 1:00:00?

I have a column with times in it, it seems to be formatted to HH:MM I would like to change this to HH:MM:SS but it will not seem to change at all by formatting the cells, does this mean I will need to go through each individual time and change it to the new format or is there some sort of work around?

I'm trying to sort a dataset that contains time stamps: each line is an event with a timestamp containing milliseconds and no leading zeroes:
if I sort, I get this result:
10:0:18:507
10:0:18:640
10:0:2:414
10:0:20:271
10:0:21:651
10:0:21:693
10:0:22:131
10:0:22:70
which is wrong on so many levels...
how can I correct this?
I wanted to convert to milliseconds but how to extract text relative to the delimiter ":"
I tried custom format, but Excel won't accept the formats I proposed "hh:mm:ss:000", "h:m:s:000", "00:00:00:000" it's all for the cat.

I'm importing data from CMS into excel and I then have several other sheets that harvest the raw data from the import and use it to calculate various things.
My problem is that when I import time data, if it is less than 1 hour (eg 39mins, 12 secs) it will format as :39:12 rather than 00:39:12 and for some reason the calculations in other sheets omit any data that does not contain the hours field.
I have tried formatting the cells as hh:mm:ss but this does not force inclusion of the hours field.
I guess what I'm asking is:
1. Is there a way of making excel include both data in the hh:mm:ss format and :mm:ss format in the calculation?
or
2. Is there a way of forcing data in the :mm:ss format to include an hours field populated by zeros?

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.
