Word 2003 problem with changing ruler
I have just upgraded from Microsoft Office Suite 2000 to 2003. I had
completely uninstalled Office 2000 and installed 2003 with all the updates. However, Word's ruler won't change from metric to inches even though inches is the chosen measurement option. I returned the software thinking it was faulty. I uninstalled my first Office 2003 and then installed the replacement version of Office 2003. Same problem. HELP! |

Jay, After looking at the link you provided I can see what my problem is. The ruler isn't set in centimeters it is set to count Asian characters! I know your solution will fix my problem. Thanks!!!
