Greetings all!

I am having difficulty with printing graph lines on a spreadsheet. This
is
a spreadsheet form which is printed off for our Sales Reps to use in
gathering data from a customer. On the back of the form, they would like
graph lines so that each "box" is exactly 1/4" x 1/4". They will use this
form for an office layout which is then given to our design department.

I am running Excel 2003; the closest I seem to be able to get is a cell
that
is 2.57 wide by 18.75 high. The resulting printout seems accurate,
however,
when I try and print out an entire page of cells - my "graph paper" - if
you
measure across, it is not to scale. We use 1/4" = 1 ' scale. If I
measure
over 24 cells, it should be exactly 6", however the result is actually 6
1/8th.

Is it possible for excel to print exact 1/4" x 1/4" squares to be used as
scale graph paper?

Thanks!
