Default setup dimensions displayed in "pt"

The page setup dimensions/margins are now displayed in pt, rather than in
inches. I don't know how that changed or how to get it back to inches.
Anyone know the answer?

G'Day R,

If you are sure that it is 'pt', then:
ToolsOptions
General (tab)
Measurement units (dropdown bottom) - select your units.

Else, see:

Tools | Options | General: Unit of measurement. Unless it's actually
character units, in which case see http://www.gmayor.com/Character_Units.htm
