Difficulty merging a Date and Time
I am having trouble merging two cells together. One cell (Date formatted)
and another cell (Military Time formatted). I would like to bring these together to represent one point in time. How can I do this? |

Just add them together and choose an appropriate format:
=A1+B1 Hope this helps. Pete On Apr 30, 5:06 pm, Adam wrote: I am having trouble merging two cells together. One cell (Date formatted) and another cell (Military Time formatted). I would like to bring these together to represent one point in time. How can I do this? |

After you merge you havve to reformat tthe cell using your prefered format
for time. "Adam" wrote: I am having trouble merging two cells together. One cell (Date formatted) and another cell (Military Time formatted). I would like to bring these together to represent one point in time. How can I do this? |

Difficulty merging a Date and Time
I have tried to merge them by "concatenating" and I get a number value
result. I hav tried to format the number value result, but it does not work. (i've copied/pasted values before i try formatting, and am getting no where) How do you suggest merging the cells so that you can format them in a time?

Difficulty merging a Date and Time
Thank you all for your contribution. I did not have my downloaded "Time" data
formatted to excel Time format. Once I did that, the Addition approach worked perfectly!
