Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Sort by date Sort by votes
Try: =TIMEVALUE(A1) and format the formula cell as Time with the format you want.

Thanks , I eventually found a good formula that worked


=TIMEVALUE(LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-1)&":"&RIGHT(A1,2)

As posted, your formula is missing a parentheses, and when corrected should not be needed if the sample text data you posted is truly text.
