Hi Bill
Taken from Microsoft website ;{The height of cells is displayed in points and
pixels rather than in inches. When you drag the boundary of a row heading to
adjust the height of a row on the worksheet, a ScreenTip displays the height in
points and shows pixels in parentheses.}
The table shows 72 Points (96 Pixels) on my computer, I get 72 Points (144
Pixels).
Am I missing something ??
I thought it could be a mistake (Typo).
Regards
John
P.S. It was very nice of you to thank Dave Peterson for helping someone being

How do I know how many inches or centimeters a certain number of
pixels will be on printed paper?

See the table at the bottom of this MS web page for approximate conversions:

You can also use page layout view, display the horizontal and vertical rulers,
and change the measurements of the ruler to inches, cm, or mm by using the
Advanced tab on the Excel Options menu.
