Add a space in data

[israel]

Hi,

Is there a formula that would add a space between two characters?

I have "12:13:09", I would like to add a space before the first colon. (12
:13:09)

 

[Bob Umlas]

Format it as
h" ":mm:ss

 

[L. Howard Kittle]

I had to format the cell as Text and enter 12:13:09 to get this formula to
work.

=LEFT(F1,2)&" "&MID(F1,3,6)

HTH
REgards,
Howard

Are these values times?

Or are they text?

If they're text, you could use a formula like:
=SUBSTITUTE(A1,":"," :",1)

If they're times, you could give it a custom format
(format|Cells|number tab|Custom category)
hh :mm:ss

or using a formula and another cell:
=text(a1,"hh :mm:ss")

Thank you for your reply. Your sollution does not work for me since my column
was formated to "TIME".

Thank you

Way to go, it worked beautifully. It is TIME and the solution was quite
simple.

Thank you
