I am unable to get MS Word 2003 to display INCHES on the ruler (it will
will
only show centimeters) - even if I do this :

~ On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the General tab.

~ In the Measurement units box, click the option you want.

I'm stuck - anyone have any great ideas?

Thanks!
