Default Column and row width

When I go to adjust the column and row width it say that the width is 12.41,
12.41 WHAT? and how can I change this to inches or centimetres?

You could use Application.InchesToPoints to convert the values.

Width and ColumnWidth are measured differently.
From the docs:

ColumnWidth:
One unit of column width is equal to the width of one character in the
Normal style. For proportional fonts, the width of the character 0 (zero) is
used.

Width is in Points
