Thanks Stefi, but the entire date string is in on cell, all i need to do is
to change the time section, i can do this easily in search and replace but because they are random times i would have to know what they are in the first place to change them to 18:00:00 "Stefi" wrote: incoming dates beeing in column A =INT(A2)+0.75 and format result cells as date/time Regards, Stefi €žwhatzzup€ť ezt Ă*rta: Good day, i have a problem where i have imported some data with dates and time, the problem is i need to modify the time part of the date to a specific time like 18:00:00.

I see, if they are strings instead of Excel date/time values, then use this
formula: =LEFT(A2,11)&"18:00:00" You can overwrite the original values with Copy/PasteSpecial-Values, if necessary.
