J JE McGimpsey Nov 1, 2007 #2 If 25d30m30s is a text entry (rather than done by formatting), you can't change the format to display d.000, but you could use this formula: =ROUND((SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"d",":"), "m",":"), "s","")) * 24, 2) Note, I don't know how you got 27 degrees - I'm assuming that's a typo.
