Yep,
I provide the UI for the user to select the vendor supplied unit value
from the list.
I don't want anyone entering (manually) any value, they must select from
my list (fed from a PG table).
(and since some units don't translate exactly, they pick the one that is
closest).
It's Tile (floor, shower etc), not the tightest tolerance of dimensions,
so it's not catastrophic if it's off
a 32nd or so.
cheers
