Well - yes - but the change would be applied to the whole column, not just
a single cell.

One solution might be to define a calculated field (string) to contain the
display you want. Then, in the OnCalculateField event of the dataset, read
the value and the unit-of-measure from the Row object, and construct a
string for your calculated field.
