Hi,
Can someone please let me know how to convert timing into "seconds".
For example if timing is 6:11:17 it should be converted into "Seconds".

- With a1 containing your 6:11:17
In b1 enter =A1*(60*60*24)

- Jim's formula would give you 22277 in another cell (using your example).
Alternatively you could just format your original cell(s) with a custom
format of
