Please forgive me I'm not the best programmer. The cells are initially a custom field but if you change them to text it isn't making a difference because of the : starting value Is it possible that you could break down what this is doing Range("L2").offset(0,1).resize(1,3).value = split(Range(cellalpha).value,":") This does work but not entirely of what I'm trying to do
Here is more of an example of what' I'm trying to do data comes is as D E F 7:58:31 :00:00 :07:36 And what I want is L M N O P Q R S T 7 58 31 0 0 0 0 7 36 as soon as it tries any cell beginning with : I get a type mismatch on the first line LHour = Hour(Range(cellalpha)), Maybe I'm not going about this the right way.
