It's generally considered polite to put your question in the body of the 
post, rather than strictly post a subject. As well, details such as what 
version of Access and of Windows can be useful.

That having been said, Access gets its unit of measure from the operating 
system. The only way to have the ruler in Access be in inches is to choose 
U.S. rather than Metric for the Measurement Units in Regional Settings in 
the Control Panel.
