35 thou, or .0354331"

Milimetres, if divided by 25.4, converts it to inches, or decimals of an inch. Mike.

According to google: 0.0354330709 inches

or about 35 and a half thou

25.4mm = 1 inch (exactly).

So 0.9/25.4=0.354 inches.

So 35.4 thousandths of an inch.

I would suggest that 'Convert' from :-

small freeware prog for your desktop, is a more convenient choice for mostof us. Mike.

35 thou. to the nearest according to !Convertor.

If you do a bit of searching, you should fine a convertor proggie somewhere that will do all this sort of thing for you. I can't help, because I don't use a PC, but if there's one for my Acorn, there must be one for those.

The message from "Scott Mills" contains these words:

Google does it too. Enter "0.9mm in inches" and you get the result.

Works for an amazing range of units...for example

30 mph = 80 640 furlongs per fortnight

1 second = 3.16887646 × 10-08 years (note that a second is very nearly pi hundred millionths of a year)

Knew someone would have it. ;-)

Except I don't use windows, but thanks anyway. I did use the google one, but just wanted to make sure it was what I thought it was.
