Hi there,
I have a large number of rows (60,000+) that holds timestamped data at 15 minute increments that I have imported from CSV files. My problem is that Excel seems to have gotten some of the dates wrong when importing it and I need to retrospectively correct it. It seems to be happening for the first 12 days of each month. For example, the date will go from 31/08/12 11:45:00 PM (correct) to 09/01/12 12:00:00 AM (incorrect). Once that gets to 09/12/12 11:45:00 PM (incorrect) the next row is 13/09/12:00:00 AM (correct). This is NOT a formatting issue - all cells are formatted as DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS AM/PM and text to columns does not fix it.
I thought I could just us an IF statement to determine when the difference between two cells was more than 15 minutes but the problem is that the range is not contiguous i.e. there are periods of no measurements that have been removed so jumps in time do occur. I need a non-destructive way to fix this across many files.
Thanks.
