Hi,

Im a dataset there is a time field, however, it is in numeric format but shown as hhmmss or hmmss.

So for 09:03:04 it will show 90304, for 17:03:04 it will show 170304. I would like to create a variable that would convert this to actual time format, however, I am finding it difficult because of the varying lengths.

Does anyone have a solution that would convert the numeric value 90304 to time value 9:03:04 & also the numeric value 170304 to time value 17:03:04

Kind Regards,

Kevan
