Default person's height format

That works for me.

Thanks Tom

Once you put the space in, the entry becomes text and cell

formatting
doesn't work well with text.

You could enter 58 (5' 8") or 610 (6' 10") using this

custom cell format:

[<100]#' #'';#' ##\"

or to treat 5 as 5'

[<10]#';[<100]#' #'';#' ##\"

Is there a way to format a cell so you only have to type
the numbers for a person's height as in 5 8, and the ' "
will automatically fill in?

Thanks
