Does anyone know why row height and colume width are
measured in different units of measure, and what the units
are that are used.
 
Randy

Row heights are measured in points. There are 72 points to an 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.

No relationship between the two.

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

Ole Erlandson has code for setting row and column dimensions.
