Default Macro for Custom Header

SendKeys can perform literal keystrokes.

Application.SendKeys "H" & "%(C)"
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPageSetup).Show

After you confirm the custom header, click OK and return to the main
pagesetup form - it may not show the header you just entered. Just click OK.


Alternatively, you could get the user to input the header via an inputbox,
then have VBA set the custom header

x = Application.InputBox("Enter Header")
Sheets("Sheet1").PageSetup.LeftHeader = x

If you search VBA's help for headers, you should be able to find formatting
codes for font, font size, italics, bold, etc.

When the pagesetup dialog box comes up, you can literally hit "H" on
the keyboard and "<AltC" to get there after that. However, I am not
aware of how to program literal key strokes into VBA.

I am assuming that is all I would need to do?

Thanks again.
