Default Can I link a cell's contents to the header or footer in Excel?

Instead of With ActiveSheet

With Sheets("Project Inputs")

Not sure how to change font and size.

Will work on it while waiting for someone to leap in.

Thank you. Any way to link it to a certain sheet called Project Inputs,
versus only the active sheet. Also, what are the chances I can select the
font and sized of the footer?

Thanks again

Better yet...............

Place the code in a BeforePrint event.

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
With ActiveSheet
.PageSetup.CenterFooter = .Range("A1").Text
End With
End Sub

Right-click on the Excel Icon left of "File" on the menubar.

Select "View Code"

Copy/paste the BeforePrint code above into that module.

I'm trying to set up spreadsheets where the footer changes depending on
certain cells contents. Has anyone been able to do that?

Thanks.
