Converting Standard Time into Military Time
 
I have a column of standard times (example 6:50pm) that need to be converted
to military times (example 18:50); is there a formula or formatting feature
that can convert the entire column?

Excel maintains time as fractions of a 24 hour day. Whether you see the time
as 6:50pm or 18:50 depends on how your format the time.

If they are properly formatted times simply select the column and then

Format|Cells
select Custom and use
hh:mm

7 minutes after your first post?

Have a little patience.

You can format the entire column by selecting it and formatcellsnumbertime
