Default How do I convert seconds (up to 38,000) into HR:MN:SEC?


Joan,

If your number of seconds is in A1 use this in B1.

=CONVERT(A1,"sec","day")

You need to format the result as [h]:mm:ss to get the desired output.
To do so, in the cell with the formula, FormatCustomType: manually
type in [h]:mm:ss here if it is not already an option in the list.

HTH
