    Measurement in twips.
    Remarks

    Excel stores measurements in twips (1/20th of a point), a resolution-independent unit. .NET controls, on the other hand, usually express measurements in pixels. This method provides an easy way to convert pixel measurements into twips using the current screen resolution.
