Default In Page Set up, how do I change it from inches to metric?

I am trying to set margins, gutters etc in metric, but all word shows is
imperial measurement, that is inches etc. How do I change this?
Many thanks

In Word 2003 or earlier, go to Tools Options General and set the Measurement
Units dropdown to either Centimeters or Millimeters.

In Word 2007, go to Office button Word Options Advanced Display and set
the same dropdown.
