hi again.
clicked the wrong button on the last post. sorry. excel keeps time as a percent of a day. 12 hours = .5 day 1 hour = 0.041666667 day or =1/24 1 minute = 0.000694444 day or =1/24/60 1 second = 0.00001157407407 day or =1/24/60/60 unless your 229.92 seconds are a decimal value of a day, you will have to do some math. multiply 229.92 by 0.00001157407407. format as time. about 3 minutes 50 seconds.(00:03:50) regards FSt1 "Mark" wrote: I have a value of 224.92 seconds that I want to 'convert' to mm:ss (or hh:mm:ss if the number is large enough) |

Better to divide by 86400, or by 24 and 60 and 60, rather than multiplying
by 0.00001157407407 which is an approximation. -- David Biddulph "FSt1" wrote in message ... hi again. clicked the wrong button on the last post. sorry. excel keeps time as a percent of a day. 12 hours = .5 day 1 hour = 0.041666667 day or =1/24 1 minute = 0.000694444 day or =1/24/60 1 second = 0.00001157407407 day or =1/24/60/60 unless your 229.92 seconds are a decimal value of a day, you will have to do some math. multiply 229.92 by 0.00001157407407. format as time. about 3 minutes 50 seconds.(00:03:50) regards FSt1 "Mark" wrote: I have a value of 224.92 seconds that I want to 'convert' to mm:ss (or hh:mm:ss if the number is large enough) |
