Model Area Size - How to set the model area to 97" by 49" with no zero areas

In the title I meant that I don't want any minus zero area. Amazing how one missed word can change everything. Apparently I can't edit the title!

I need to set the size of the modeling area to 97" in x and 49" in y. I don't require any minus x or y or z values.

How can I do this?

Thanks in advance,

Gary
