Default Ruler in Excel

It would be great if there was a ruler option in Excel so that columns & rows
could be sized more easily than entering an amount in a pop-up box. The
ruler, like in Photoshop, should be able to be adjused to display in inches,
points, and any other size format that may be useful. Having to convert
points to inches is a bother and, after all, the reason for Excel is to make
it all a lot easier.

Thanks!
