Default How can I format a cell to have the same text with a number

I need to format a cell to have deg/sec follow when ever a number is entered.
I found where in custom formatting there is a +/- sign that is automatically
entered when a number is entered. I need it to work like that.

Hi kpt,

Define the custom number format as:
0 "deg/sec"
or as:
+0 "deg/sec";-0 "deg/sec"
depending on what you're after (it's not entirely clear).
