I’ve created a new Excel file reading package, and in Excel you can have cells that have a time, but no date part. I’m trying to figure out in what type I should return those values… I could certainly just format them as strings for now, I guess… I myself don’t have a use for it, I just want to make sure the package does something meaningful if it comes across a file with such a cell.

I'm pretty sure I mocked something up at one point, but don't know if I have any code still lying around. Happy to help push this if there's enough interest. -Jacob On Fri, Mar 13, 2015 at 7:06 AM, David Anthoff <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: Hi, is there a Time datatype, analogous to the Date type? I ran into a situation where I need to represent times (like 12:34 pm) that don’t have a date associated. I understand that in the case of dates that don’t have a time component I’d use Date (instead of DateTime), but I couldn’t find anything the other way around, for times that don’t have a date. Thanks, David
