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!

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.
