Question Newbie needs help with calculator

As a newbie to the Pocket PC (Axim) and to this site, I could use some help. I am a cabinet maker/woodworker and need a calculator that allows inputting/computation of fractions/mixed numbers, e.g., 11¼ +22½ - ¾, etc. Is anyone familiar with such a beast?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Dick

Sorry, I am not aware of any, but you might check www.freewarePPC.com for free stuff or Handango.

I believe this calculator will do fractions. I use their HP 12c version and I love it.

Hmmmmmmm. I have been using the HP-12C for longer than the PC has been on the market, but don't remember that it has the ability to do fractions. I have Lygea's version also. I'll have to try it on both. In any event, there are contractor calculators that will do this and with far fewer buttons and unneeded options.

I believe that Real Calculator will do fractions.

I don't think the HP-12C can, but the HP-15B should be able to. That is what my link was for... I just said I use their 12-B version...
