Units.SetFormatOptions

Description:
Sets the default FormatOptions for a unit type.

Remarks:
Some unit types have definitions which are automatically derived from other unit types. For example, UT_SheetLength is derived from UT_Length and UT_ForceScale is derived from UT_Force. In such cases, calling SetFormatOptions() for one unit type may have the side effect of changing the FormatOptions for other unit types that depend on it.
