I should like to know please how to convert it to a format preferably like this: day/month/year hours/mins/seconds/milliseconds
Preferably via a formula. Alternatively or as well to unix epoch time.
That would be a big help.
Thank you,
Alfie101
 

Excel Facts

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
What does the +1000 mean?

Try the following formula and format the cells as :- dd/mm/yyyy hh/mm/ss.000

=DATE(LEFT(A2,4),MID(A2,6,2),MID(A2,9,2))+TIME(MID(A2,12,2),MID(A2,15,2),MID(A2,18,3))

I am not sure what the +1000 means, it came that way.
The formula seems to work for the date conversion but not the time (and not down to milliseconds if indeed it can go that far).
Thank you footoo,

In what way is it not working?
Give an example of data before conversion and the formula result.
Did you format the formula cells properly?

Hi footoo,
Example below...thanks.
The original time data is in column A, the result of application of the formula in column B (all dates without times) except for B2 which shows the formula actually used as applied down column B.

It works for me. For example, the result for the first item on your list is : [TABLE="width: 230"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="align: right"]2018/07/06 08/05/02.000[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

All I can think of is that you have not formatted the cells as dd/mm/yyyy hh/mm/ss.000
