Lets say for example I have 6 durations:

mm:ss.00
4:03.2
4:08.2
4:03.1
4:06.4
4:01.3
4:03.3

And I want to find the minimum duration. How would I do that? It doesnt work if I say =min(A1:A6).

I've tried using =concatenate("00:",A1) etc etc, but it doesn't seem to work.

The values I believe have been stored as text, so using min will not yield anything other than 0.

Prepending 00: to each value is a start, but the values will still be text values. You can multiply each by 1 to convert them into numbers; so you'll have:

=concatenate("00:",A1)*1

Or the equivalent:

=("00:"&A1)*1

Once you have these, you can run min on them (and use the formatting of m:ss.00).
