show fractions in drawings

I can't figure out how to show fractions in drawings this way: 3/4" instead of .75". I've done this before but sadly my powers of recall seem to be fading. I am using "smart dimension" for some drawings that are consumer oriented so I would like to make the dimensions easy to understand. Thanks in advance.
 
from memory, if you select the dimension, click on properties, it can be changed to fractions there. Or if you set it up in options, all your dimensions should then be in fractions
 
In SolidWorks 08 version, click on the dimension then click on the "other" tab in the dimension window. You can change to a fraction under the "over ride units" section.
