Unit Converter for Excel

Unit Converter for Excel is a small utility that enables you to make simple changeovers between a plethora of measurement units.

As the name suggests, this is an add-in that integrates into Microsoft Excel's toolbar and hence, it borrows the popular application's looks and feel.

To put it simply, you can take advantage of Excel's fine-tuned list or database making capabilities and then use the add-in to perform the measurement unit conversions you need for your work or college project.

When it comes to transitions from one unit to another, this is where the application really shines. Not only can you do fractional to decimal feet calculations (and vice versa) with it, but you can also make conversions from one measurement unit to another.

Regardless of whether you want to convert simple temperature readings from Fahrenheit to Celsius or want to calculate the angular velocity for all four tires for your car, the add-in can do the computations fast and smooth.

To simplify things even further, Unit Converter for Excel has grouped measurement units into 10 main categories, which contain several other sub-categories. The utility enables you to access a window with all units organized in alphabetical order.

Even though it has an uncontested conversion capacity, the add-in lacks one important option that can come in handy for both advanced users and amateurs, namely a search function. Without it, looking for a certain unit when you do not have an extensive knowledge can be time consuming and frustrating.

In fact, a search function that enables you to look up measurement units using abbreviations as well as full names could make this add-in more attractive for the average users.

Granted, chances are that you can get bored really fast with this converter if you do not work or study in a specialized field. Then again, given the wide array of unit conversions it can perform, Unit Converter for Excel can seem to be a great tool for engineers and students attending a technical college.
