Time Field Formatting
I am exporting a report from Crystal Reports because the time "in" and time "out" fields are recognized as text fields in instead of time fields. I am trying to get a total time. If I try to format the cells as time cells it has no effect. Here is my example: 11:30 AM 12:30 PM I use the =Left(a3,5) formula to drop the AM & PM off of the cell and I am able to sucessfully get a time difference for all times that do not cross the noon hour. I get the following result for times that do cross noon: 11:30 12:30 ######################## where ########### should actually be 1:00 I realize the root problem is that the database we are pulling from does not recognize the fields that have times as time fields. I am not able to correct that so I hope Excel can help with this problem.
