Greetings,

I have a macro which is resulting in me get the error described in the Subject Line.
The current Format in Column E is Custom: dd mmm yyyy hhmm.

My macro is:
Sub twenty_four_hour_Clock()
VBA Code:
   With Range("E1", Range("E" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
      .NumberFormat = "E"
      .Value = Evaluate(Replace("if(@="""","""",if(isnumber(@),text(mod(@,1),""hhmm""),@))", "@", .Address))
   End With

Thank you very much
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Have you tried:
.NumberFormat = "dd mmm yyyy hhmm"

@Livin404 is this in regards to your fill in missing dates question that I recommended that you start a new thread about? I ask because you had the same mistake in that code.

"E" It is not a valid format

As JoeMo comments
Try :

.NumberFormat = "dd mmm yyyy hhmm"
Thank you for getting back. I don't know how I ended up with an "E". I suddenly realized I meant to have
Excel Formula:
.NumberFormat = "@"
. This allows me to remove everything but the last four digit of Julian Date and Time. The date is identified by another Macro I used which inserts the date.
