I've got a cell that shows me the time spent on a certAIN MACHINE (02:25:12), which shows hours:minutes:seconds

How do I set this cell, without using a macro, to show me a decimal value (2.42 hours). I've tried all the cell formats on Excel.

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.

Don, this can't be done with formatting. You could enter a formula in another cell that converts your time value (in cell A1) to hours...

=A1*24

The formula worked great, i know it seemed simple but I was racking my brain to find out how.

Again thanks,
