Row heights are measured in points or pixels. There are 72 points to an inch
and "maybe" 96 pixels to the inch.
The number that appears in the Standard column width box is the average number
of digits 0-9 of the standard font that fit in a cell.
For an interesting and enlightening discussion on this subject see

If you want to use VBA to set height and width in mm which you can convert to
inches.
Ole Erlandson has code for setting row and column dimensions.

I want to make my grid into perfect squares: row height = column

The problem is, they seem to use different measurement schemes. Is
there some conversion factor, or way to set columns to use the same
measurement scheme as rows?
I need them to print out as perfect squares.
