Format Time as Text

[bpc]

I have a column of time values, (formatted for example as 14:50 or 6:15). I
am flexible on the format of this column. In an adjacent column I need the
time value to be converted to text so that 14:50 reads as 1450. Simply
speaking, I need the colon removed. Thank you in advance.

=TEXT(A2,"hhmm")


where A2 holds the time value

Why do it as text why not use a format

A1 14:40
B1 =A1 and apply a custom format of HHMM

While your suggestions worked, I realize now that I need the result to remain
a number and not text. Therefore, how do I remove the colon will maintaining
a number format. Thanks again.

That did it David thanks

Change =TEXT(A1,"hhmm") to =--TEXT(A1,"hhmm")
