You can specify UnitsNameOrCode as an integer or a string value. If the string is invalid, an error is generated. For example, the following statements all set UnitsNameOrCode to inches.
Document.LeftMargin (visInches) = newValue
Document.LeftMargin (65) = newValue
Document.LeftMargin ("in") = newValue where "in" can also be any of the alternate strings representing inches, such as "inch", "in.", or "i".
For a complete list of valid unit strings along with corresponding Automation constants (integer values), see About Units of Measure.
Automation constants for representing units are declared by the Microsoft Office Visio type library in member VisUnitCodes.
