Excel suggestion. It would be great if the 'Format' cells "Numbers Tab" would
allow you to format numbers with either English or metric systems weight,
length and distance measurements.

If anyone knows how I can add a 'g' for grams within a cell with out
disruptiing the SUM function; please let me know.

Thanks,
Jim
