Default How do I write a superindex in excel? (e.g. for square meter m2)

ALT + 0178(on the numpad) will give ² after you type the m

If you have a great lot of these to do just go into FormatCellsNumberCustom
and in the dialog box enter 0"m" then hit ALT + 0178 and OK

Or run this macro on your selected numbers.

Sub sq_Meters()
Selection.NumberFormat = "0"" m" & Chr(178) & """"
'0179 for cubic meters
End Sub
