Formula?
 
I have a column of numbers that I need to convert to hh:mm:ss ie 57 changed
to 00:00:57. I have 1567 entries and was hoping there was a way of doing it
rather than manually changing every entry!! Pls help!

Formula?
 
Either copy 86400 and paste special divide and you may want to select values
to remove the formula.

or you can enter the following formula in column b if the cells are in a
=a1/86400

or you can use =time(0,0,a1).

you then have to set the format to time with seconds to display properly.

Hope this helps
