I need to output variable length text as fixed length (15 characters) data, left justified and filled with trailing spaces. Any ideas? Solved....

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.
this did not work when I converted Excel spreadsheet to a text file and then opened in Notepad. The cells did not have the correct character position for each column.
