I can't seem to find a difference between Fixed-Work and Fixed Units. Could

There is a fundamental equation in Project
Work = Duration x Units
Fixing work means that if you change the duration of the task, the total
work will remain the same, but the units (% of resource assigned) will
change proportionally. Fixing Units means that duration changes will cause
proportionate changes in work.
