I've done something like that: =IF(ISERROR(LEN(A1)-FIND(".",A1,1)),TIME(LEFT(TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",""),"0000"),2),RIGHT(TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",""),"0000"),2),0),IF((LEN(A1)-FIND(".",A1,1))=1,TIME(LEFT(TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(A1&0,".",""),"0000"),2),RIGHT(TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(A1&0,".",""),"0000"),2),0),TIME(LEFT(TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",""),"0000"),2),RIGHT(TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",""),"0000"),2),0))) But if you can have a look and simplified it will be graet Regards, Pawel ________________________________ From: Maries <talk2mar...@gmail.com> To: excel-macros@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, March 29, 2012 8:36 AM Subject: Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ format a cell Dear All, For these three conditions - 532, 1215 & 12.10, try below formula. =TIME(LEFT(TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",""),"0000"),2),RIGHT(TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",""),"0000"),2),0) Regards, MARIES.
