Hello,
I am Using Windows 7 and Excel 7, I have a previously created spreadsheet in which cell B2 contains the date AND time. It looks like this: 2015-07-17 12:55. There is no formula in the formula bar, and it is in a "general format" as best I can tell. (I did not create this spreadsheet.) The spreadsheet is populated from an upload from a piece of medical equipment. Unfortunately the time was off on the equipment by 47 minutes and I need to add that time back in to all of these cells (B2-B5621). Is this possible? This is a minute by minute spreadsheet for 72 hours of data.
Thanks!
 
AlanY and gebobs,
Thank you both for your help. I basically used both of your suggestions, entered the corrected dates and times in two new columns and added in the 47 minutes. It seems to have worked!

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
