It's generally considered polite to put your question in the body of the
post, rather than strictly post a subject. As well, details such as what
version of Access and of Windows can be useful.
That having been said, Access gets its unit of measure from the operating
system. The only way to have the ruler in Access be in inches is to choose
U.S. rather than Metric for the Measurement Units in Regional Settings in
the Control Panel.
