How do I change Ruler Unit of Measure in Word 2007

[projectleaderhelper]

I just noticed that my MS Word 2007 Ruler uses POINTS instead of INCHES as
the unit of measure. I do not recall changing it, and I want the ruler to
display inches instead of points.

How do I change Ruler Unit of Measure in Word 2007?

Click Office button | Word Options. In the Advanced category, choose the
desired unit of measurement (under "Display"). Click OK.

If the display is really in points, Stefan's answer will suffice. If not,
