I received an excel worksheet. It's named "fileA 24Aug2005.xls". When i
open it up on my mac in excel, the date truncates to something like
"fileA #17D114.xls. This wouldn't be a problem, except that when i
print their file from my computer, the new name, prints at the bottom
of the worksheet which won't fly because the new name printed wouldn't
match their database.

2 questions.

1) where is this file name stored and where is the command that tells
it to print at the bottom, because i don't see it on my screen, only
the printed copy.

2) how can i open a file without changing the system changing the
name?

very grateful for any insight.

Mary

Hi Mary

The file name at the bottom is probably in Footers, click View Header
and Footer, under footer click the down arrow and select none

Don't know how it changes the name sorry
