I was given a spreadsheet with dates and timestamps of when one of our systems went down and came back up with the task of creating a visualization of the data. The Date and Timestamps were embedded in a string, A & B columns, and I was able to create columns that extract the Date and Timestamps, M & O columns, and then another column that finds the difference between those timestamps, so the total time elapsed, but I am having trouble getting the data to plot onto a bar chart.

I used the formula =TEXT(O2-O3,"h:mm:ss") to find the time elapsed (TIMEOUT [N] column)
When I try to create a graph it gives me a chart with no data plotted/drawn I have changed so many settings I can't remember them all. Though, I think it has everything to do with the data format of time confusing Excel. I just need Excel to put the date at the bottom and a bar above it showing a visualization of how much time elapsed in seconds from the outage to it coming back on. I am sure there is probably a simple solution, but it is eluding me at the moment. Any suggestions are appreciated.
