Script or action to set open vector drawing's units to inches and artboard to 24"x24"

[Matt Fitz]

I am bringing in a large number of vector files from different sources. When opened the vector drawings have units set to points, mm, etc. and various sized artboards. For each opened vector drawing I want to set the unit to inches and the artboard to 24"x 24". I am setting each of these parameters manually in Document Setup for each vector. Is there a script or action that will allow setting one or both of these parameters? I apologize in advance if there is a simple way to do this that I am unaware of. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Assuming one artboard, this should resize it:

var AB = app.activeDocument.artboards[0];
var w = 24 * 72;
var h = 24 * 72;
AB.artboardRect = [AB.artboardRect[0], AB.artboardRect[1], w, -h];

Adding this line

app.executeMenuCommand("unitundoPref");

 at the end will bring up the units dialog box, but you will have to select your units manually.  Also, this causes buggy behaviour for me in CS6.
