Excel handles dates and time using a scheme in which dates are serial numbers and times are fractional values.

Text function excel date time. To calculate and display the days hours and minutes between two dates you can use the TEXT function with a little help from the INT function. Converts a text string showing a date to an integer that represents the date in Excels date-time code. To enter a date in Excel use the or - characters.

Numeric time values are more. It is simply the text string date that you need to convert to time format. Note that Excel rounds the value to 2 decimal places.

The TEXT function requires two arguments that is items between its parentheses. TEXTA2ddmmyyyy hhmm If you want to. TEXT TODAY DDDD Todays day of the week like Monday.

In this blog post Ill let you in on a date formatting trick. Im not talking about date formatting through Format Cells but about the date format you enter manually when using the TEXT function. If you have dates that include time you can use the INT function to extract just the date part.

Months first Days second. This value is converted to a text value. For example the formula TIMEVALUE900 AM returns 0375 the numeric representation of 900 AM in Excels time system.

You can also enter a date and a time in one cell. 26 lignes TIMEVALUE function. The second argument format_text is a special string that Excel recognizes and uses to display the converted text value in a format that you specify.
