FORMATTING CELL TO ACCEPT MEASUREMENT
I'm not sure how to format a cell to do this but you can use the
formula below... =ROUNDDOWN(A1,0)&" ft. " &MOD(A1*12,12)&"in." just put the total feet / inches (i.e. 1.5 = 1 ft 6 in) in cell a1 and use the formula above.

FORMATTING CELL TO ACCEPT MEASUREMENT
Why not use format # ??/12
Then you can enter 7 3/12 This way lets you do arithmetic on the cells (add, multiple, etc) best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme remove caps from email "HOW TO FORMAT CELL TO ACCEPT DATA IN FEE" <HOW TO FORMAT CELL TO ACCEPT DATA IN wrote in message ...
