Default Ruler appearance will not change to inches

Yet another person has to say THANK YOU - shame Microsoft couldn't make the
information available themselves and that we have to rely on brilliant people
like you! Again - many thanks

I recently upgraded from Office 2000 to Office XP and my Word ruler will only display in what I believe are picas. I have already verified that my default measurement units are in inches at Tools\Options\General, but the ruler display will not change from picas even if I try different default measurement types.

This is extremely frustrating as I use precise measurements in many documents I create and prefer to do this in inches. I would be extremely grateful if someone has a solution to this. Thanks.
