Change the unit of measurement in Excel?

[Loukat]

I am trying to set up a document and the columns and rows are measured in
pixels. I need to be able to work in millimetres. Does anyone know how I
change this? Thanks

Row heights are measured in points or pixels. There are 72 points to an inch
and "maybe" 96 pixels to the inch.

The number that appears in the Standard column width box is the average number
of digits 0-9 of the standard font that fit in a cell.

For an interesting and enlightening discussion on this subject see

If you want to use VBA to set height and width in mm.

Ole Erlandson has code for setting row and column dimensions.
