    Formatting "hrs" to a column

    How can I format a column so that when I enter a number it always ends in a specific text?

    For example, when I enter certain hours as 4, 5.5, 2, I would like it to always just say "hrs" at the end.

    I looked at format cells-->custom, but was not sure where to go from there.

    Thanks

    Go to Custom, select 0 then type space "hrs"
