Seconds into time

[mathew.heys]

Hi Guys, I am tying to convert seconds however every time I attempt to
use the Time(,,seconds) formula it returns #NUM error. I am trying to
convert 1864800 seconds this equates to 518 hours.

If you want to convert into hours you can just do:

=A1/60/60

and format as general.

If you want it into time format, but showing 518:00, then do this:

=A1/60/60/24

and use a custom format of [h]:mm

Hope this helps.

Pete

If you want to know why that doesn't work, look at Excel help for the TIME
function.
