On WinXP, Mathematica v5.1, and using: <http://jowett.home.cern.ch/jowett/Accelerator/ConstantsUnits.html> (a very useful extension to the inbuilt Mathematica packages) Needs["Accelerator`ConstantsUnits`"] Resistor = 1 Mega Ohm; Voltage = 1 Milli Volt; Current = Voltage / Resistor Convert[Current, Ampere] gives Ampere/1000000000 Is that what you wanted?
