Date & Time Question
 

I have a list with a field in that the date and the time and these cells are
in the date and time format. (dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm). I need to be able to use
the time part of the data on its own and sort it into time order. Is this
possible?

Date & Time Question
 

Insert a column to the right of your Data/Time column and enter the following
formula adjusting the cell address to your worksheet layout:

=TIME(HOUR(A1),MINUTE(A1),SECOND(A1))

Then copy down the column as far as necessary.

Hi,

1 way.

Reformat your cell with the custom format of hh:mm
sort your cell in the desired way
Reformat back to dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm

i have assumed your data is in column A and your first cell is A1

Select Comn B and format it HH:MM

in cell b1 = A1

you can now either copy and paste the values to adifferent column to
sort or sort where they are
use the sort button on the tool bar

Do you think so? Have you tried it? [If so, on which version of Excel?]

Hints: Does sort base its results on the content of the cell, or on what is
displayed? Does the display format affect the content?

In case Kevin doesn't return, I'll answer the questions for him. No, it
doesn't work, because sorting operates on the entire cell contents, which are
still the date+time, regardless of the format you apply.

To sort by the time portion only, you must split it out into a separate
"helper" column using one of the methods already proposed.
