Oh, I understand. It actually looks very useful. To have sort of a built-in metic unit conversion thing. It's a neat idea. Now that you mention it, one of my early calculators had an engeneering mode. I never understood it. It looked like scientific mode, but wrong. :-) In any event, thank you for the explanation.
