Hi

Have a read of Chip's site:
http://www.cpearson.com/excel/FeetInches.htm

It gets a bit complex but it should set you off in the right direction!
Hope this helps.

Can someone advise on how to add length in Excel, for example, I need to
add
5 ft 8 in and 7 ft 9 in. I want an answer to be also in feet and inches.

Gladly appreciate!
