I have Microsoft Excel 2000 on my pc. I want to show the current date and time in a cell. I looked in Help and found the NOW() function. It does display the current date, but as for the current time, it doesn’t show AM or PM, it shows: 4/19/2011 11:22. I understand why that is.
Is there some other date/time function that will show AM/PM, or is this something that isn’t available?
I think the default is to show the time in 24hr format – so you’ll be able to tell am/pm from the hour, but if you want AM/PM to show – right click on the cell and select “Format Cells” and select “Custom Format” – use the following mask – dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm AM/PM and I think you’ll be all good.
