Converting a non recognizable date time
 
I have high speed monitoring equipment that imports thousands of date time
readings as follows:
05/24/2010 14:20:00.000.084

Excel does not recognize it as a date time and I only need:
05/24/2010 14:20:00

Is there a way to convert the unrecognizable date time to a usable date time?

Converting a non recognizable date time
 
Hi,

have a look at 'Data|Text to columns' and use the full stop as the delimeter

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
