That was my point which the OP chose to ignore. Such is life :(

While your suggestions worked, I realize now that I need the result to
remain
a number and not text. Therefore, how do I remove the colon will
maintaining
a number format. Thanks again.

I have a column of time values, (formatted for example as 14:50 or
6:15). I
am flexible on the format of this column. In an adjacent column I need
the
time value to be converted to text so that 14:50 reads as 1450.
Simply
speaking, I need the colon removed. Thank you in advance.
