    Time format to text

    Hi, I want to convert time format to text, like if I have 25:20 in Col A1, then i need "25 Min 20 Sec" in col B.

    Is there any formula, I tried =LEFT(A1,2)&" Min "&RIGHT(A1,2)&" Sec", but it is converting it into decimal format

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

    You can use this in B1:

    =MINUTE(A1)&" Min "&SECOND(A1)&" Sec"

    Hope this helps.
