Setting special format for a cell
Dear All,
Could you please tell me how can I can set special format to a column? To be precise, I'd like to set such a format to the column of cells that it always shows like " ... sq.m.". For example, if i enter number 5 to the cell, it must then look like "5 sq.m". Regards, Ruslan |

Setting special format for a cell
Hi,
Select these cells then 'Right click' select 'Custom' and apply a custom format of 0.00" Sq M" -- Mike When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the question.
