suffix in cells with custom format

1. Select cell A1
2. Press CTRL + 1
3. Select Custom
4. Clear General (below Type)
5. Type in: "Temp = "#,##0.0
6. Then, hold down the AltGr key on your keyboard and type 0176C. (That's the code to have the degree symbol as seen in the attached pictures.
Click OK
Completed. See the two attachment
