Millimeters is the unit to use.</P><P></P><P>2. Any additional code over and above the default (such as a wrapper) has the potential to add processing overhead. These days though, computers are so fast that you are not likely to be able to see the difference. I have not heard reports of any negative speed impact from using wrappers.</P><P></P><P>3.
