How to format cell with datetime object of the form 'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss' in Excel using openpyxl
So, given: dttm = datetime.datetime.strptime("2014-06-23 13:56:30", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S") ws['A1'] = dttm The result in excel is that the correct date-time is written to the cell (you can see it where you'd input formulas). BUT, the cell display format is only MM/DD/YYYY. I need the cell to display like "6/23/2014 13:56" instead of just "6/23/2014". How can I explicitly format the cell to accomplish this? Thanks! Edit @alecxe This solution works and is exactly what I asked for. I would like to be able to save styles like the solution by @Woodham. Unfortunately it raises a typeError (see comment
