Default PAGE.SETUP header format query

This works for me:

Application.ExecuteExcel4Macro "PAGE.SETUP(""&C&F" & vbCr & "&A"")"

| Hi
|
| I'm trying to insert a carriage return into the page header using the
| PAGE.SETUP Excel 4 Macro. I'd be grateful for any pointers.
|
| I was originally using the .pagesetup function but it was taking too
| long to communicate with our network printers so I switched to using
| John Green's PAGE.SETUP code which is quicker and works fine except for
| the issue with the carriage return.
|
| This is the original line of code I'm trying to replicate with the
| page.setup macro:
| wTargetwks.PageSetup.CenterHeader = "&F" & vbCr & "&A"
|
| The page.setup equivalent I'm using is:
| head = """&C&F" & vbCr & "&C&A"""
|
| When I use the .pagesetup version excel correctly recognises the
| carriage return and puts the tab name underneath the workbook name.
| When I use the page.setup version excel doesn't recognise the carriage
| return and both names are superimposed on top of each other on the same
| line.
|
| If you then go into Page Setup in Excel and view the custom header
| Excel then 'recognises' the carriage return and if you click on okay
| the header is correctly displayed.
|
| Does anyone know of a way around this problem? The only work around I
| can think of is to put the worksheet name and tab name in different
| parts of the header, however I need to maintain the existing worksheet
| format if I can.
|
| Any help would be most appreciated.
|
| Thanks
|
| Paul
