Ruler Showing Bizare Measurements

[Lawrence]

Hi Folks!

The horizontal and vertical ruler is showing a bunch of number units that
are squeezed together to the point that they are not hardly intelligible. I
checked the measurement settings under Tools / Options / General Tab /
Measurement Units. This is set to inches, which is what I want. I did a
Detect/Repair of Word on the Help menu and also did a repair through Control
Panel. Nothing I have done corrects this problem.

Please assist me.

Many thanks!

Why is this 'Character Unit' something that must be edited in the Macro
Editor instead of having it as another option in the Tools/Options? This is
a strange way to fix something that should never have been a problem in the
first place.

It's a bug. At least it is one that can be fixed.
