g.mm units problem

Hi - see attached.

I'd like to show OOB with units of gram-millimeters (g.mm).

When I change the units from m.kg to g.mm it adds kg.s^2/m.

Can this be avoided?

Instead of g*mm try gm*mm

Gram is defined in Mathcad as gm not g. G is the gravitational constant.

Thanks

As gm is not an SI unit, I have redefined g as gm using the global definition.

I would recommend against doing that.
