assuming that your string is in A1, use:

=TIME(LEFT(A1,2),MID(A1,3,2),RIGHT(A1,2))

format as time

Hi there,

What excel formula would I use to convert a number string i.e. 143254 to a
time string, i.e. 14:32:54

I need it to be as a formula so it is automated and not a manual process.

Thanks in advance

Andi
