If you are starting with feet in decimal form, say A1 contains 12.1, then
=INT(A1)&"' "&INT(12*(A1-INT(A1)))&""" "&TEXT(MOD(12*(A1-INT(A1)),1),"##/##") will display 12' 1" 1/5 as feet-inches-fractional inches If you are starting out with feet and inches, then put them in separate cells. -- Gary''s Student gsnu200709 "aw" wrote: I am trying to produce a chart that will add up FT-IN, is this possible with Excel? |

I generally enter such measurements in the form 2 4/12 (I format the range
with custom format # ??/12 to prevent Excel making this 2 1/3) Such values can be mathematically manipulated (summed, averaged, etc) For a alternatives see http://www.cpearson.com/excel/fractional.htm http://www.cpearson.com/excel/FeetInches.htm best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "aw" wrote in message ...
