Question

I have a column of cells in an Excel spreadsheet containing times like, 3:15, relating to the time spent on a task. At the bottom of the column I’ve used AutoSum to add up the times, but the result appears as either a date or funny number. What do I do to get a total in hours and minutes?

Answer

The formula you created with AutoSum is fine.

All you need do is apply an appropriate format to its result:

• Select the cell containing the total
• From the Format menu, choose the Cells command
• From the Category list, select Custom
• In the Type box, input this format [h]:mm (note the use of square brackets).
  If you want to show seconds in your total, input [h]:mm:ss (this format is listed in Excel’s Custom formats)
• Click OK.
