How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
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.

Just a copy paste error into this thread, but it did work.

Time value converts to serial. Anyways... remember there are 50 ways to do the same thing in exce
