Hi everyone,

How can I specify the height of a row in cm?

In Word, when I draw a table, I can specify the height in cm but in Excel I
have not found an option to do so.

Also, when I print the Word document, why are the printed tables not
exactly the size I specify?

Word/Excel 2000...

Thanks in advance,

1 inch =25.4 mm (NOT 24.4)
This is the DEFINITION of an inch and was adopted in WWII to make US and UK
parts interchangeable
So the US is really metric!
best wishes

Offhand, I don't recall when or why the definition of the inch
was changed but both the British and the American definitions
were very close indeed to 25.4 mm to the inch, close enough that
wrenches were interchangeable. Conveniently for obtaining
agreement on a *definition*, one inch was slightly more than
25.4mm and the other less.

How the hell did 24.4 get into my post?<g>

Thanks Bernard for the correction.
