I would like to change the measuring type for Indents and margins from US to

anyone know how to do the switch between the two systems?

ToolsOptionsGeneral - Measurement Units prior to Word/Office 2007

In Word 2007 click the Office button, click the Word Options Button - can't
picture the rest & am not at a Word 2007 system right now, but that should
point you in the right direction
