Default Convert Decimal hours and Minutes to minutes please.

ps

ok if I have 4.50 in A1 and P in A2

P is afternoon
Is it possible for the formula to look at P in A2 and add 720 so the answer
is 1010 please.

another example 16.50 to 1250 minutes.


OK, but 16.50 still doesn't = 1250 minutes.

16*60+50 = 1010

Hello Chip from Steved

I ran a payroll which was designed about 40 years ago so in my exercise
16.50 is the same as 4:50 pm. I am in the process off converting the
payroll
to minutes.

The short answer is multiply by 60. But your numbers are all
wrong. Assuming that 16.50 is 16 and 1/2 hours, the correct
number of minutes is 990, not 1250. Similarly 4.50 is 270
minutes, not 530. Am I missing something?
