Time Conversion
Hi All,
I'm having trouble working out how to convert a time.
I have 1 minute 30.009 seconds in one cell, entered as 1:30.009 and want to display is another cell as 90.009 seconds. any help would be greatly appreciated

forbesy71 The simplest "formula" in C1 would be =A1 and than set the custom format for C1 to [ss].000
Alternatively, you could use the TEXT function that allows you to type the desired format into the formula between quotation marks. Using a double hyphen (i.e. two minus signs) in front forces it to become a numeric value.
= --TEXT(A1,"[ss].000")

forbesy71 Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean by "I'm after the formula or steps to do it".
