So theres no way to format data for particular cells
as
feet,inches persay?
IE cell A1 is 12"4" and cell B1 is 12' 8" and
formula
for cell c1 would be
Sum(a1,b2).

If you convert your data to inches you can use:
ROUNDDOWN(A1/12,0)&" feet "&A1-12*ROUNDDOWN(A1/12,0)
&"
inches"

Try putting inches (your result) in A1 for this
example.
