Displaying seconds in hh:mm:ss format
I've got a cell with the total number of seconds in it.
A1 contains the number: 3,157 This number represents seconds. Is there a format or function that will display this in hours-minutes-seconds (hh:mm:ss)? Thanks, Paul |
Displaying seconds in hh:mm:ss format
One way:
XL stores times as fractional days, so to get an XL time, divide seconds by the number of seconds in a day: =A1/86400 Format as [h]:mm:ss In article , "PCLIVE" wrote: I've got a cell with the total number of seconds in it.

Paul,
you need to divide by 86400. The format you seek can be found in Format|Cells..., under the Number tab. Choose a Time format. HTH Kostis Vezerides |

Try
=A1/24/60/60 or =A1/86400 formats as hh:mm:ss -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "PCLIVE" wrote in message ... I've got a cell with the total number of seconds in it.

In B2 enter =A1/(24*60*60) and you should see 0.036539352
format as hh:mm:ss and you will see 00:52:37 ___________________________________________ Gary's Student "PCLIVE" wrote: I've got a cell with the total number of seconds in it.
