ExcelBanter - How do I change column width defaults from inches to units?

What do you mean by "units"?

Column width defaults are not in inches.

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.

Row heights are measured in points or pixels. There are 72 points to an inch
and "maybe" 96 pixels to the inch.

For an interesting and enlightening discussion on this subject see

If you want to use VBA to set height and width in mm which can be converted to
inches.......................

Ole Erlandson has code for setting row and column dimensions.
