What exactly is the formula you used and in what version of Excel?

In Excel 2002 (10.4302.4219) SP-2
=CONVERT(1,"uk_pt","oz")
returns 19.211, not 19.6. 19.211 is the correct conversion to U.S. fluid
ounces, which are slightly larger than Imperial fluid ounces.

Your post appears to have nothing to do with Excel crashing, which is
the focus of this newsgroup.
