Default Totals in Days, Hrs and Minutes

247.00
5.00
125.00
640.00
535.00
610.00
186.00
785.00
265.00
380.00
554.00
1,355.00

I need the above column (those values are in minute
values) to total 3 days, 22 hours and 32 minutes.

Any ideas? Please, your assistance is appreciated.

Thanks,

Syd

Have a look at http://cpearson.com/excel/datetime.htm#AddingTimes

Basically, you need to add up the minutes and divide the total by 1440
(24hours x 60 minutes). If you format the result as time (d h:mm) you should
get what you require.

If you want a numeric value you need to sum then and divide by 1440 (number
of minutes per day)

=SUM(A1:A12)/1440

now use a custom format such as

dd hh:mm

doing so I get 3 day, 22 hours and 47 minutes

if you want it in one fell swoop you could use this formula

=TEXT(SUM(A1:A12)/1440,"dd hh:mm")

note that the latter is a text value

Hi Syd,

It works until your total days does not exceed 31.
Let us know if that possibility exists.

Daniel M.

Note that this only works in the 1900 date system and for total days
not exceeding 31.

To correct for the 1904 system, subtract 1 from the result.

=INT(sum/1440)& " days " & TEXT(MOD(sum/1440,1),"h:mm")

or

=INT(sum/1440)&" days "&TEXT(MOD(sum/1440,1),"h"" hrs ""m"" min""")

The results are text.
