Hi - data sample attached. The date time reporting intervals in column A are every 10 mins, all day, across multiple dates. My goal:

  1. Create a line graph that only has an event per hour. I don't really mind what time within the hour it is, as long as its consistent. E.g. show every event at h:06m
  2. I want to filter out anything that is before 8am and after 6pm and ideally, not include Saturday or Sunday but the latter is a nice to have which I could manage manually if need be
  3. I can then select which of the columns from B onwards I want to show in the line graphs
Thanks in advance

Excel Facts

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
what version of excel do you have? please display this on your profile button, by updating your profile.
How are you breaking ties? What if there is no value at exactly an "00:06:00" (or whichever minute interval) you want?

Is this a question on an excel competency exam?

I'm on Mac v16.81 (profile updated). Not sure what you mean by "breaking ties". The intervals are set, there should always be an event at each interval. Thanks

As per above, excel version is 365 for Mac v16.81. This is all it says for my version.

Yes, data is already filtered at10min intervals but I want to filter it to show only one interval per hour. e.g. 1/3/2024 8:06:00 am, 1/3/2024 9:06:00 am, 1/3/2024 10:06:00 am and so on.....

Seriously?.
We are just asking you to include your version (365) in your account details so that it is always visible to your helpers - like this.

Click your user name at the top right of the forum, then ‘Account details', update the details & don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’

Have a look through this thread.
