Let's assume you are using Excel2003 (or earlier)
Select the cells to be formatted
On the Menu use Format | Format Cells and click "Custom" on left side of
dialog
In Custom dialog, locate the Type box and type in the # ??/14

You could use custom format # ??/14
The you would type, for example 12 2/14 for 12 stone 2 lbs

In Excel 2007 is it possible to format cells for weight, such as stones
& lbs?
e.g. 14 lbs = 1 stone
Please excuse my lack of knowledge on this subject, but how would I go
about using custom format # ??/14 ?
