    Date & time formats issue

    Hi chaps,

    I've attached a small sample of an excel file I created from a CSV. The date has defaulted to American format and the time is, as you can see, messy. How can I reformat so that I can have British date format and 24 hour clock?

    Thanks Martin. If I knew where you lived you'd be getting a Christmas card.

    I get a month's worth of data at a time and I've saved your advice as a macro which I'll simply run on the new data once a month.

    Cheers,

    RL
