Parsing out time-of-day from a date to a separate column

Question

I have, per cell, a date value in the format 2013-01-05 11:21.

Is there a way to separate the time of day (ie 11:21) and put it in a new column, without having to manually cut and paste?

I have a lot of date values in one column, and I want to separate the time-of-day portion of these dates into a new adjacent column.

Answer 1

Yes - the TIMEVALUE function should do this. You may need to format the result cells (in my examle: B1:B8) as time values. Using cell formatting, you can set the output to a hh:mm syntax, too.
