David,

When I saw your answer i couldn't believe I'd made such a simple thing so
complicated. Thanks.

Dividing by 14 is better than muliplying by a rough approximation to the
reciprocal.
And for the remainder after the division, MOD(A1,14) is easier than
INT((A1*0.0714286-INT(A1*0.0714286))/0.0714286)

Hi,

I'm not sure about a format but with a number of pounds in A1 try this.

=INT(A1*0.0714286)&" St "
&INT((A1*0.0714286-INT(A1*0.0714286))/0.0714286)&"
lbs"

It will start losing accuracy at around 2500000 pounds.
