Use the Windows Start button, and go through Start... Control Panel... Regional and Language Options... Customize, and select U.S. on the Measurement System dropdown at the bottom of the list.

Hi John I didn't read your suggestion/instructions FULLY Under Regional and Language Options... I didn't continue to 'CUSTOMISE', and select U.S When I did do it - the page measurements did change to Imperial and not only in Access, but in Word and Excel too Thank you for your help and a lesson in "Read the instructions" This is a bad habit of mine of jumping in without reading the instruction fully Many thanks Regards Martin ©¿©¬
