Word 2003 insists to use US measurements......

Why?

All of my regional settings in XP say Australian. Other computers
running it have measurements in metric. What is the problem?

Help!

OK, as no-one else has turned up...

I use Win98 & Word 2002, but if I'm understanding your problem
correctly, the answer will be the same.

Your operating system is set to Australia region - fine. But, Word
will have its own setting for units of measurement. In Word 2002, with
a document open, you can opt for inches, centimetres, millimetres,
points (1/72") or picas (1/6") by clicking Tools > Options > General.
Hope it's the same for Word 2003 ;)
