Assuming your value is in A1 =CONVERT(A1,"day","hr") HTH, Steve -- SteveG ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SteveG's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=7571 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=539381 |

I must not be doing something right to get 2.25 hours. I added times of day and got 2:15 (time value format-2hours & 15 minutes). 2:15 is in cell A1. Then I tried =CONVERT(A1,"day","hr") with Number and General format and received #NAME?. Tried =A1*24 with Number and General format and received 0. Please help. -- SAR ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SAR's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=34172 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=539381 |

For CONVERT you need the Analysis ToolPak add-in. =A1*24 should work, so my guess is that your 2:15 is not formatted as time. Check the format of A1. -- David Biddulph |
