Default Convert Text in cell to hh:mm:ss

Hi,

the easy way: select the cell and choose Data, Text to Columns, Delimited,
Next, check Space, Next, in the preview pane select days column and then
click do not import skip, repeat this for the hrs, min, and sec column, pick
a destination cell and click Finish. Suppose the destination cell was B1, in
A2 enter

=B1*1440+C1*60+D1+E1/60
--
If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Cheers,
Shane Devenshire
