Re: [ExcelVBA] Help with sum of time

 

Hi Jeff

2:00 is two hours.  so if you display the minutes and seconds it will be 0:00.

You need something like ="00:"& txtPIM1.Value & ":00"

Or better txtPIM1.Value/60/24

This gives a value in days and fractions of days which is how Excel handles dates and times.

Hi All,

I am trying to create a hockey tracking spreadsheet. One thing I am trying to track is penalty minutes. My input is via a textbox.

Cells(EmptyRow, 13) = txtPIM1.Value + ":00"

I added the + ":00" to display time as 2:00, 5:00, etc. I want to sum the total penalty minutes, but my method gives an incorrect number. I tried formatting the cells to mm:ss but that doesn't work either. If I enter 2 as a value in the textbox txtPIM1, it returns 00:00.

Any help appreciated.
