degree format

I don't know how to format a cell in NUMBERS to display the degree symbol? ie. 22º.

I don't understand how to execute a custom format.

Can anyone help?

You do need to create a custom format. After selecting the cell, choose the Cell tab in your sidebar and select Custom Format under Data Format. You can add a custom format to a text or number field. In this case I added the Name as "Degree Format" and made the type a "Number". Under Custom Format, click after the blue format box and type Option-k. That is the degree symbol and will be added after the number, Now click OK and you have created a new Custom Format that can be used anywhere in your document. You can than choose "Edit Custom Format" if you want to make changes or delete it.
