How do I format a cell in excel to display 0.5 hrs as 00:30
Thanks Bill,
I have used this and will do as a backup. What I would like to do is acheive
the same result by just typing 1.5 in A1 and have it format to A1 to 01:30

entering 1.5 in excel as a time will give you 1.5 days.
to convert that to hours you would need to divide by 24
I.e. A1 has 1.5
B1 ..........=A1/24 formatted as time hh:mm

I am using Excel 2003 SP1.
I am entering the number of hours it takes to do a task into a cell as 1.5
I want it to display as 01:30 ( 1hr:30min )
I can do this by entering 0.5 in one cell and then converting it to a text
01:30 but I would rather loose the additional coloum to do this by just
formating the cell.
Can this be done some how
