Time - converting HH:MM:SS to Minutes
Is there a way I can use a time entered in a cell in the format hh:mm:ss and
convert it into a decimal of minutes? I have tried using the 'Time' function but can only get it to work if I enter each of the three parts in separate columns. Thanks Noel |
You could use a helper cell with a formula:
=A1*24*60 (Format it as general, though) Noel S Pamfree wrote: Is there a way I can use a time entered in a cell in the format hh:mm:ss and convert it into a decimal of minutes?
