Q: How do I change measurement units from US/British to metric in Excel?
A: Go to Windows control panel (mine is Windows XP), select “Regional and Language Options”. Under “Regional Options” tab, select “English (United States)” from the drop down menu, and then click the “Customize” button next to it. Then under “Numbers” tab, set “Measurement system” to Metric. By now, Excel will work under metric system.
