Googled for this one..........
=INT(A3*0.071429)&" Stones "&ROUND((A3*0.071429-INT(A3*0.071429))*10,0)&" lbs" enter the kg's in A3 You can work with the rounding if you need part pounds. -- Greetings from New Zealand "Michael Eastwood" <Michael wrote in message ...

As an alternative to Bill's answer
A3 has weight in kilograms =A3*0.071429 then format with Custom format # ??/14 In this way, 100 kg displays as 7 2/14 meaning 7 stone 2 lbs best wishes from Canada -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "Michael Eastwood" <Michael wrote in message ...

There is one slight mistake in the above formula...
Thge "*10.0" (times 10) must be changed to "*14.0" (times 14) !!! OK FLKulchar "Bill Kuunders" wrote in message ...
