43,560 apologies - I should have checked that there was support for units of area before opening up
my big keyboard :)

The Convert function doesn't directly support units of area, but can be used for "square units to
square units" conversion. Eg to convert 100 square feet to square metres use the following formula:
=CONVERT(CONVERT(100,"ft","m"),"ft","m")

| Or you could use the Convert function in Excel -
| =CONVERT(number,from_unit,to_unit)
| Use the help key for syntax for the "from-unit" & "to_unit"
