Himetric

Himetric is a resolution-independent unit of length.[1] Its role is similar to the twip, but it is one hundredth of a millimetre.[2] It is mainly used in Object Linking and Embedding[3][4] and derived technologies such as ActiveX,[3] Active Template Library[2] and Visual Basic up to version 6.[5]
