Hi, Just to point out that the correct unit symbols are: 'cm' and 'kg'. Both letters are lower case, no capital letters.
The following are examples of inkorrect symbols: 'Kg', 'Km', 'KJ', and 'KW'. The prefix: kilo should be lowercase 'k'. The correct symbols for the units kilojoule and kilowatt are 'kJ' and 'kW'. The word 'inkorrect' does exist.

The form askes for my height and weight but allows entry in Ft/In or CM and LBS or KG. Be nicer if it asked for mass and also they had the units correct (Cm, Kg) but it’s a start. Of course I used the metric notation. The lab was Litholink. Howard R.
