I have all my other MS Office products set to show my measurements in
centimetres, except Powerpoint.  How do I change the settings, I can't find
it anyway!

This is done from Control panel, Regional Settings, Number, Measurement.

I'm using Office 2002 and this option is not there!  Any other suggestions?

Sue,

What version of Windows do you have? Also, this might help:

PowerPoint ruler shows inches instead of centimeters. Or vice versa.
