Default Margins - points (pt) to inches

Despite the fact that I am a techie (computer wizard), I can't figure
out for the life of me how to get Microsoft Word 2003 to display its
margins in the regular inches instead of points (pt). I don't know how
it got changed to pt, but I originally had it as inches, including in
page layout. Any advice on how to change this would be much
appreciated.

Thank You

Are you sure they're points and not character units? See
