To Add huge set of secs.milllisec to given time in hh:mm:ss.millisecs
Start time is 10:48:00.000 (10 - hr 48 - min 00 - secs 000 - milli secs).
Requirement to add huge set of secs.milli secs to the start time
Eg: 01.408 (01 - secs 408 - milli secs).
(Start time) 10:48:00.000 + 01.408 (secs.milli secs) = 10:48:01.408.
To Take care:
1. 60 secs is 1 min, so minutes needs to get incremented accordingly, Eg:(Start time) 10:48:00.000 + 61.523 (secs.milli secs) = 10:49:01.523
2. 60 minutes is 1 hr, so hours needs to get incremented accordingly, Eg:(Start time) 10:48:00.000 + 3600.478 (secs.milli secs) = 11:48:00.478.
Need help to derive the formula / steps to achieve in Microsoft excel.

Armanath,
and if you want to type the numbers as seconds,milliseconds then:
A B C 5 10:48:00,000 1,408 10:48:01,408 6 10:48:00,000 61,523 10:49:01,523 7 10:48:00,000 3600,478 11:48:00,478 Cell Formula C5 =A5+B5/24/60/60 C6 =A6+B6/24/60/60 C7 =A7+B7/24/60/60 - amarnath subramaniCopper Contributor
Thanks. Since, to add with secs.millisecs (set as number in Format cells), modified the formula as C1+D1/(24*60*60) which worked.
Hello,
make sure the cells are formatted with custom number format h:mm:ss.000;@
Next, if you enter a second.millisecond number into a cell, you also have to enter the hour and minute as 0. For example enter 01.408 as 0:00:01.408 and enter 61.523 as 0:00:61.523. The last number will be converted to show as
0:01:01.523 and you can add it to the initial time value correctly.
