Everything in my database is "cm" - I wanted inches.

Can I change this - if so "how"?

Thanks !!
 
To get Access to use inches for rulers, margins, widths etc:
1. Open the Windows Control Panel
2. Go to Regional Settings
3. Change your measurement type there.

Yes. It's obtained from your system's regional settings, so change
from Metric to Imperial (or US) through Control Panel | Regional
Settings.

You can't change it only for Access - it will change for everything.
