Change text into time
one way: put this in a column and copy down. Format cells as hh:mm:ss
=TIME(LEFT(A1,2),MID(A1,3,2),RIGHT(A1,2)) Copy/paste special=values as required HTH "need help" wrote: All, i have data from a text file, exported to excel.

Change text into time
How about a helper column of cells with formulas like:
=--TEXT(A1,"00\:00\:00") And format those cells as Time (format|cells|number tab) need help wrote: All, i have data from a text file, exported to excel.
