Convert units to integers in determining width?

[eagle]

How can I convert the width of a column to an integer? I want to add the
widths of several cells so I can align outside data with it. I tried:
Dim i as integer = dg.Columns(1).ItemStyle.Width
but of course get an error that the width is in units.

Thanks for your help.

Dim i as integer = CInt(dg.Columns(1).ItemStyle.Width.Value)
