Default Setting the Width of a column

I need to set the width of a column. I am using the following code

ActiveSheet.Columns("A:A").Width = 57

This should set the width of the column to approximately 0.8 inches (57/72).

I am getting the following error message:

Run-Time error '1004'

Unable to set the width property of the Range class.

Why not?
