In Excel 2007 is it possible to format cells for weight, such as stones &
lbs?
e.g. 14 lbs = 1 stone
 
You could use custom format # ??/14
The you would type, for example 12 2/14 for 12 stone 2 lbs

Please excuse my lack of knowledge on this subject, but how would I go about
using custom format # ??/14 ?
 
Not a format.............needs a helper cell.

=INT(A3/14)&" Stones "&ROUND((A3/14-INT(A3/14))*14,0)&" lbs"
