Default Display page breaks automatically

Ice man

ToolsOptionsViewPage Breaks just shows page breaks by dotted lines on the
sheet.

Do you mean "page break preview" which is a different animal and is found on the
menu bar under "View"?

Either one is window-only function.

To have either for each sheet and workbook would require VBA code.

You can store this setting in a Template for NEW books and Sheets but that won't
affect existing sheets and workbooks.

This suggestion certainly eases the task.
Are you also saying there is no way to add a tag to the start string that
will automatically turn on the view page breaks?
Thanks.

You could always add the page break icon onto a toolbar then it is only one

How can I cause excel files to always view page breaks rather than having to
go through 'Tools', 'Options', 'View' and select 'Page Breaks' under Window
Options every time I open a file?
