How to change default unit of measurement from inches to mm

[Guest]

I cannot find where I can change the default unit of measurement from inches
to metric. This is because my mailing labels aren't printing properly snd
tend to "slip" onto another label.

Access gets its unit of measure from the Regional Settings. Open up the
Control Panel, go to Regional and Language Options, click on the Customize
button on the Regional Options tab and look near the bottom of the Numbers
tab.

The units of measurement on your computer are set in the language and
regional settings. If you change them, the entire computer is affected.

Using the label wizard, you can set custom label settings to about a
hundreth of an inch. That should be more than sufficient to fix your problem.
