In response to this comment:
Actually I was totally wrong. The “correct way” to do this is to
1. convert the seconds into fractions of days (Excel thinks of time spans as fractions of a day… goodness knows why)
2. format the column to display mm:ss

=A1/(24*60*60) (Converting seconds into days)

It has an extra unnecessary *60.
Just do A1/(24*60), and format by mm:ss, and it works. Hurrah!!! Thank you so much for this!
