changing units of measurements in Access

Help!! I've been trough the program several times and cannot find the feature
to change the program from metric to Inches. I can do it for word and so on
but have had no luck in Access

Cheers DCW

Access use the regional settings of the local machine: go to: Control Panel
| Regional and Language options | Customize ... | Numbers | Measurement
system.

Take care, as changing some settings (like the format of the date) could
easily break some Access applications.
