Hoping to get some help with this as I have spent hours searching to no avail!
I have a numerical variable as hh:mm of the type 08:30 (time 5.) and would like to split into two num variables hh and mm so that I can do some recoding.
How does one do that? I have found out about splitting DD/MM/YY:hh:mm but that is not my case as dates are separate.
Hope you can help - thanks so much everyone for reading!
Thanks so much - worked perfectly!
It might be better to describe (i.e. show a few examples of) the sort of recoding you need. It may be that you do not need two additional variables at all.
